Conditions were typical for April. Snow is melting and is very soft. Snowshoes were absolutely necessary today and will be for a while longer. Snow is still deep at elevations over 3000 feet. The bushwhacks were tough to follow today. The tracks would be visible and then disappear, probably due to melting. We were all over the place! Sorry to anyone who tries to follow our tracks. I tried fixing the EH whack on our way back out but messed it up towards the end.
We took both bushwhacks on the way out but decided to skip the Iso Express on the way back. Glad to have this one done for April! |
