Spring Plans

IMG_0590Pep­per and I are gear­ing up again! We are get­ting excit­ed to get back out­side after a roller coast­er win­ter and put our hip flex­ors to the test………and hope­ful­ly get some good turns to accom­pa­ny all of the ele­va­tion gain. We are look­ing at walk­ing out the door at home, putting our skis on, sling­ing a pack over our shoul­der and start­ing our trip on the way to Mt. Whit­ney. Our goal is to ski the 400 miles from Truc­k­ee, CA to Mt. Whit­ney, rough­ly fol­low­ing the John Muir Trail and Sier­ra High Route cor­ri­dor (depend­ing on snow con­di­tions and weath­er). Hope­ful­ly we’ll start get­ting back in the storm cycle so there will be snow at all ele­va­tions. There’s noth­ing worse than hik­ing in ski boots and car­ry­ing your skis!

All of the sea­son­al roads through the Sier­ras will still be closed but I will try to post updates when­ev­er we resup­ply. So, check back in and fol­low along!
