Heading in the canyon. |
| Ski mountaineering: We stayed at Bow Hut and were lucky to have it to
ourselves. We brought all kinds of "extras" like a honeydew melon and cake;
it's Fab's birthday. The next day we headed out towards the Saint
Nicholas/Olive col, where we left our skis. The temperature was mild
and
when the sun came out it was quite hot. After a very nice break at the
col, we followed the snowy ridge to the summit. At that point, I
surprised Fab by pulling out birthday hats out of my pack for the
summit pictures. |

Is there a better way to celebrate? |
