Cutting My Own Path

|

For part of my ski route, I followed Shultes Road which is a seasonal use only road. Nobody had hiked, or skied on this road since the last snow last weekend. It was tough going for a while, but it was still good to be the first one there.

Getting Camp Set Up

|

I've had my eye on this campsite ever since it was created with the new UMP plan and logging a few years back, but usually I like to head further out of town for weekend trips, but with only one night of good weather, this was perfect for roadside camping. Might be hot in the summer, though there is good southernly shade.
