Many thanks to SN for hitting Thor with me yesterday after what I heard was a TOUGH Saturday. I had a blast, especially on the descent running from the potential rain!
while Snow Nymph headed over to hike Thor - I decided to go hike Snow Crown for some pre-group hike scouting. will post more over in the group hike section
mountain hiking is addictive:
I can quit anytime I want - I just choose not to want
MooseTracks and Snow Nymph went up the Class 3 route , then bombed down the SE Couloir. 6.1 mi/4,000' el gain for the day. My total for the weekend: 25.5 mi with 10,800' el gain. Next weekend breaks my record of 86 consecutive weekends!
