Girls day in the pressies. Decided to take it easy with a loop of these three still making the best of the weather. Wonderful company and lots of pictures taken. Snow conditions varied. Snowshoes were not needed until Jewell. But definitely needed there. Considered crampons on Ammo. If the rain comes, bring them. It's real filled in and never relents. Lots of bare bootable stuff today as well. Carried it all. We are mountain girls after all. Thank you Karine for a great day above tree line. We started our Spring tans. |
