 | Comments: |
Started up the ski trail, soft snow, post holing in snow shoes. Fell threw the snow up to my chest into water halfway up my calf. Past the ski patrol hut bareboot/spikes are suitable until past the summit of saddleback. Deep soft snow in the saddle, some fur traps. A lot of snow melt from when we started to the time we got back to the lodge. |
