Wife and I went for a spin up near Darrington today.

Clear Creek










Just an old snowmobile track and a skin track.. nice snow


floating nicely along


hard pack




getting to the fresh snow


started getting steeper..






up and up


you can just see White Chuck..


looking back.




floating nicely at 4psi


grade was a bit steep


bunny highway


3740ft. time to park. up ahead the grade steepens significantly and there is a lot of off camber exposure.. not something for a one-rig adventure.




White Chuck


Baker












nap time








brought the snowshoes but we didn't need them at all... 4100ft elevation




Pugh on the left














time to head back.. getting dark







guys flew over in a copter, wonder where they went
