Well what a freaking crazy conditions day. We started off with 3 of us but the sickness got the better of the day for her. So the 2 of us went on barebooted to the crossing which was easy and no wet boots! Put snowshoes went on after that! Only 2 prints ahead of us which we Never caught, we think they went to guyot. It was a combination of wet slush to wet sticky to powder. There is a lottttt of snow up top! No views on north but opened up to south! Quick going down and then break at the hut. Food and then up to galehead which was very sticky. Headed down and then took snowshoes off before the crossing. Barebooted from there and we hit bare ground!!! Like what!!!! Bare ground and out and bare road! What a weird conditions day! |
