Grabed the splitboards out of the car - Mine is a Burton my friends a custom Never Summer - and started skinning up the hiking trail around 9:30.
Bluebird day - temps in the mid-20's..
Took a slow pace - reached Hojos in about and hour and 15 minutes..
BS'd with caretakers for a while and ventured over to Hillmans Highway. Avalanche danger was bad so we decided to just test out my friends splitboard crampon setup on an icey Hillmans...
I decided to bootpack it over but the drifts were up to the waist - So I hung at the bottom while my buddy tested out the crampons..
After he scraped his way down - we headed over to the Sherburne trail.. It was really sweet...!! The wind had blown a ton of snow onto it and it all settled on the skiers left side - nice drifts!
Sherburne Trail
Sherburne Trail
Took about 20 minutes to get down...
A great day of skinning and riding!!!
