It was a great day to bag (3) 4000's to my list and thanks to the snowshoer's the trail was well packed and I was able to hike with just light traction. It was cold first thing with the wind but subsided as the day went on. Met some great people on the trail today from all over and hiked a ways with Matt. Meet a guy on SKIS skiing down on the Willey Range Trail on Mt. Tom! This a first for me and was very cool as this was number # 39 of the 4000's he had under his belt back country skiing. |
