Honeycomb Cliffs


Craig and I hiked up the canyon toward the Honeycomb cliffs on Friday afternoon. It was warm and the snow was melting. There was really brisk winds blowing and as we got higher we were hiking on some crusty snow. We had some nice views at the top and then skied down. The snow wasn't as nice as it was on Wednesday. Consequently I fell 3 times. I was also hiking with a new backpack. It carries the weight a little lower on my back so that may have thrown me off a little too. We had a good time hiking and skiing together. Hopefully there will be new snow to ski on next time out. The avalanche forecast is calling for a big dump over the next few days taking the danger to high. It may be a while before we venture into the back country. Slackcountry will be the rule.
