Today Lace and I went hiking up to Snowbird and had a great time. We decided to make it more adventurous so we went down a big snow plow hill. It was much more fun than walking to the lodge.
Here is Lace right before we threw on the snowshoes.
After the hill we came to a rushing river that we had to cross. As I was crossing, the snow that I was on fell out from under me. It was quite humorous as I looked over my shoulder to the lodge, and we had collected an audience.
Lace was able to get across in a different place quite easily. It helps that she weighs 50 lbs less than me.
As we were hiking we came across a make shift shelter. It will be great if we ever get stranded 600 yards up gad valley…
Within the time frame we had, we made it to the top…of a hill right next to where mid gad lets off… at the half way point (see the map below). We were quite happy we made it that far.
We then rewarded ourselves with a wonderful ski down. 1 Hour up, and 5 minutes down. If there are any takers that want to join Lace snowshoeing during the day, give her a holler.
We made it where the thick black line is (not the ones with the diamonds on them, those are for skiing)
