A Thanksgiving Week Adventure
30 Nov
9 days.
112.3 miles.
35,050 feet of vertical gain.
25 peaks climbed.
As may have been apparent due to my deplorable lack of updates, last week I was on vacation. Spare the occasional check of the higher summits weather forecast from my cell phone – (okay, and I’ll admit the near daily mobile updates to Facebook) – I was entirely without internet. What a marvelous experience it was.
The week began in trail runners, and ended in snowshoes and insulated boots. Glaze ice gave way to mild temperatures, and then feet of heavy wet snow. After nearly a month of unseasonably warm weather, winter has finally decided to pay a visit to the mountains. I, for one, could not be happier.
