3 Days 15,200 ft of Skiing

Friday: After spending 3 days at Camp Muir setting up the Alpine Ascents facilities for the summer we skied down the skier's left side of the Muir Snow Field on incredible snow. On this descent I learned how rapid one's acceleration can become with a 5o lb. pack!

Saturday: We skinned to Camp Muir (4600 feet over roughly 5 miles) in 2 hours 30 mins. We skied the Cowlitz glacier to the Paradise glacier back to the car.

Sunday: due to a poor forecast for St. Helens we skinned up the turtle snowfield on Rainier to 11,200 feet and skied down.

My legs feel good but tired. Time for a rest day. Hopefully I can get some pictures up soon.
