The thing about ski mountaineering is that you have to get your skis UP the mountain. This adds about 20 pounds to an already hefty pack. I would like to say that I hiked up to camp. But in fact, I shuffled - slowly - up to camp. I lacked only little tennis balls on my trekking poles to resemble a little old lady creeping along with her walker. However, we made it and the gorgeous campsite perched above the valley made it all worth it.

While a bit of snow fell that night, we did NOT have to worry about cows falling on us.
