Inaugural 2015 tour!

The boys were back in town for the first tour of 2015. Kendall, Aaron and I sledded out to the end of Salmon la Sac and skinned up to do the Cabin Run. We've had very little snow so far this season so it was pretty bony at the bottom, but the top 1000' of this 3000' climb was filled in nicely and had a nice light-powder consistency due to the extended cold temps.

It was a gorgeous day -cold but blue sky and no wind. After picking our way through the trees at the bottom, we were skinning in t-shirts and no gloves, even though it was 20 degrees. Glorious day of powder, and so great to be out with the fellas that I've known since college and who got me into backcountry skiing in the first place
