 | Comments: |
Two chicks and one bitch broke out a foot a snow, drifts two-three feet deep. Bushwhacks were tough to follow because of all the drifting but thankfully I had a GPX on my watch. Sank into a couple spruce traps where I thought I’d fall to the other side of the earth, thankfully did not. Saw one other person but he didn’t get much further from the Engine Hill turn off before turning around so Rocky Branch is not broken out. A nice trench for anyone who wants to do Iso before the next storm. Leave the ice axe at home and for the love of god, DON’T LISTEN TO TRAIL RUNNERS. |
