Back to our usual scheduled fun.

This is today's 4am run..... damn it's dark.
This is my Hike up to dog lake.

Snow Line.... Yep slow trudging this day. But I did get up above where anyone else this day had hiked.
Making small fire isn't as easy as the survival guys make it look. This took quite a long time and I had a lighter. Of course that ground is awefully wet.
This whole Mt. Coffee thing kicks ass. nothing like a hot cup of coffee and a warm meal after an hour and a half of Trudging through the snow. Add another hour of just regular hiking.
Ok, back to work.... Seriously this is my third day of taking a Beating in gold miners... It will take 2 days of gains just to get out of the Hole.

Wow what an awesome bunch of pictures! That must be so satisfying to get up above the snow line like that and make yourself some coffee...

I'm inspired.

without snowshoes, at the snow line it's slushy, and you have to come up a few hundred feet in altitude before it gets firm enough to walk on.

Thanks :)
