Snow In The Mountains

Snow In The Mountains

The plan for yesterday was to attempt a long high traverse, but with mother nature throwing in overnight snow, that was quickly ditched. Instead, I tried to salvage the day with some miles and vert. on the local hill. I don't get to count this time towards my G & T Challenge since I already did it this week - nonetheless, the wind and snow and people made it a fun outing. Up Kelso, down then up G & T, then down and over and up Baker Mnt. and then down. 21 miles and 8,700' gain in 5:56.

 A fair bit of fresh snow.
