If it can't snow, then we might as well have some good ol high pressure systems to kick out the clouds and let the sun shine..
Saturday my bud Tim and I ventured up and over to Togwotee Pass and beyond.
Notice the high mark in the background...
The snow was pretty firm making it easier than normal to "top out" on high ridges. Here we are at over 11,000ft looking down into Jewels Bowl and the terrain we had just ridden up. The cornice and cliff to the right are all in the Wilderness area and no go for sleds!
Me digging the views looking toward the east and out near Dubois, WY.
Tim riding out of what could be the largest cornice in Wyoming? That big muthah will last into August.
Again, straddling the Wilderness boundary with the Yellowstone Plateau in the background.
It almost felt like we were on the moon.
Once we got back to the trailhead I had arranged to meet up with my bud Hager and his girlfriend Emily. We had a couple of well deserved beverages and then they grabbed my sled and rode into Brooks Lake Lodge for the night to stay with friends.
What good mission to the north of town isn't complete without a bitchin sunset on the way home?
