Now that February is almost over we figured we should do a tour in Blackcomb before the season ends...
View into Spearhead Glacier from Don't Swill.
You wouldn't believe how many tracks were in there! It was like inbounds!
The 200m climb up the stairmaster was sweltering!
This led us into some not bad meadow skipping. We didn't venture too high as the snow pack was thin and wind scoured. The facet layer and low snow pack below 1900 on the NE aspects was pretty predominant too.
getting back around to Blackcomb Glacier was somewhat bony too...
