SNOOOOW Just Bagged Ralston in Deso

Post by Vaca Russ »

JB just texted these pictures to me:

He said the snow starts at about 8000 feet but he didn't even need to use the traction he carried along. It looks like lower Echo is snow free.

I better start working out. We plan on climbing Shasta this spring. It will be easier to keep up with him if I would shed this extra 20 pounds. ](*,) :rolleyes: :mad:

Great job, Jon!

JMHO,

Why use the word "bagging"?
