Another long weekend. I wanted to sit on the couch and watch all 5 seasons of the family guy, but Jo wanted to go skiing. OK Jo, you win.
Application of duct tape to hot spots at Healy pass.
Egypt lake shelter (the Sphinx on the left).
Jo thinks it looks like angel wings.
Saturday we went in search of untracked pow. Some success was had, nice views also.
A shout out to our sponsors (Healy pass in the background).
We compiled a team of backcountry experts for an assault on the Wapta icefield this past weekend. Laura, Brian, Nick, Lindsey, Jo and myself hauled both ourselves and packs laden with port and meat sticks up to bow hut on Friday. Saturday, we made a quick trip up Mt Gordon where Jo added to the summit cairn and Sunday we laid a few more turns above the hut before making our way back out to civilization and Laggans bakery. All and all, a great long weekend.
