It was a great day on the mountain and hardly anyone climbing to Muir at 5:30 in the morning!  Somehow, I managed to avoid the large crowds until returning the parking lot nearly 12 hours later.

Looks like you waxed your skis ;) We watched you last time skiing the Paradise Glacier--skiing? More like stepping down LOL  Glad you were able to get up some speed this time! :)

I had my skis freshly waxed and also carried some rub-on wax and will make it a habit to have my skis hot waxed every couple of trips along with applying rub-on wax before each run.  Next week, I'm off to ski race camp to learn some technique so I can ski faster!
