Menage-a -Trois tour

Sunday, January 31, 2010: Today, Shaggie called the ball. We skied a traverse through Desolation Wilderness from Bayview to Dick's Peak, then Janie's Peak, then Maggie's Peak & out the desperate up-track back to the parking pull out.

The tour covered around 10.5 miles over 5K-feet of elevation gain & loss. So it was burly, but not vomitous. We even kicked off a couple little shallow wind slabs on Dick's.

We learned a lot: that this is actually a great tour, for instance. Some of us even learned we'd been wearing drop seat pants for 13 years without realizing it. And that what happens on a stupid ski tour STAYS on a stupid ski tour :)

Skiers: Shaggie, Beth, Chris, Buttercup, Castle-Bloom, Jeff, Faerthen, Gregor, Erica & Anne.

Affirmative-action token Snowboarder: Rob.
