yes, the snow is knee deep on skis

skiing (traversing) in deep snow

Catching up some more on t-h blogging. Carrie and Matt went up to Spalding Meadows on Monday, March 12. It was a great hike up (see the picture of Matt hiking up on skis above). We skied around a little up at the top (not enough–Matt ran out of fuel for the warm food for lunch (we still had chocolate and trail mix, etc), Matt ran out of steam a bit (and he had worked up quite a steam/sweat on the way up and had done a not-so-good job of managing moisture!), and the snow was “closing in” a bit (visibility was dropping and snow was starting to pile up quickly)–Matt had images of two frozen Torsten parents and thought the grandparents would kill us (if we weren’t already dead)). So we headed down too early. And that was still lotsa fun!
