The big boss finally could go. Some fun in the snow.... but a lot of snow free trail walking and bunch of xcountry.
Second saw the snow along GP knew the boots and snowshoes were staying in the car.
Went up a couple of domes had my eyeballs on awhile.
Saw no one except for a cluster of tents camped too close to Illiouette crossing and trail.
Was surprised that from Mono Mdw. trailhead up Horizon Ridge that there was very little snow until about, maybe 7800.
And bummed we couldn't glissade down any slopes due to angle of the dangle and overnight refreeze.
Funniest thing was the Buena Vista Trail had a lot of deadfall... the wife says "The xcountry was easier". Love her.
