tytyler Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Climb: Alpental Valley-Source Lake Date of Climb: 1/14/2006 Trip Report: Headed up the summer trail in a search for a little ice to climb...found none of course. Did a fair share of breaking trail as no one had ventured too far in with all the new snow. I had a snowshoe penetration of about a foot in most spots. The temps were pretty warm, about 35 or so. There was light snow all morning and no noticible wind. The new snow seemed to be pretty high density and bondng well. I jumped on a few little slopes to see what kind of movement I would get and got none, only deeper penetration. I didn't dig any pits or venture into any of the open slopes in the Source Lake basin area, didn't want to risk it. Kind of wish I brought the board instead of the ice tools and rope, the trees would have provided some great powder riding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BelaySlave Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 Hey were you the solo guy who came up on us and helped break trail, then the boy scouts came up after you. We stopped just in the treet above where we all stopped. on Richard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
