We awoke to low visibility and fresh snowfall on our tent. We waited a few hrs in hopes that the clouds would rise and visibility would improve . We never left camp to start our carry and we are thankful we didn’t because the weather deteriorated more that afternoon and into the evening. While staying at camp we snacked, napped, read and organized camp. We then had some delicious, spicy burritos for dinner and talked about writing a guide book for hot sauces.
Shout out to all our friends and family back home!
Best,
RMI Guides Lacie, Dustin, Will and team
