From the sound of other posts, everyone recogonized this was a Pressi day which did not disappoint. Valley Way well packed. Used snowshoes as did everyone else! THANKS YOU. Above the hut we swtiched to spikes which were fine in the snowfields on Gulfside and Lowes. Some drifting but it was easy going. It was too boney for snow shoes above the hut. Congrats to Karen for 43 and 44 W4K. Good to hike with JohnG. Great Day Out |
