Bighorn Peak 2-15-09

Postby Dave G » Mon Feb 16, 2009 12:34 pm

Norma and I showshoed up to Bighorn Peak Sunday, via Icehouse Canyon. There was an amazing amount of snow at Icehouse Saddle (with more falling as I write this!) and lots of very cool rime ice on the trees. Fortunately, it was cold enough that not many bombs were falling :D . On the way back we saw one guy skinning up and I'm betting he had an awesome ride down.

Dave, as always, great pictures - we are having one of the great winters we only get every four years or so.

Nice work.
