 | Comments: |
Parked at the golf course, crossed the river on a golf cart bridge and bushwhacked in about a foot of powder .6 mile up to the CVR. Followed CVR to about the 5.5 mile mark and followed a logging road uphill to the west .75 to a clearing. Bushwhacked about .2 across the head of a drainage to another logging clearing and followed another road to the height of land and the normal summer route. Some snowmobile traffic helped some but left us the last mile to breakout ourselves. Unconsolidated powder made for slowing going. Nice views all day. Thanks to Tom and Dan for a great day. |
