The plan: Screw this shopping crap - we're going back country skiing to  
the only place that probably has snow - Kit Carson Pass.

  • 5:30AM - A late alpine start. Coffee required.
  • 6:50 AM - Sunrise on the road.
  • 10AM - A discovery - Wood Lake, our trailhead.
  • 12PM - About 1.5 miles of hiking (yes hiking) in Randonee boots. We're never going back to Alpine ski boots.
  • 12PM - Still not consistent enough snow to use the skins.
  • The views were absolutely amazing - I can't wait for this area to get more snow.
