South Thunder and Lone Peak

Woke up early on Saturday, True Alpine Start (4:45 a.m.), and jetted up Bells Canyon. Skied the false summit of South Thunder, then booted up to the real summit, knocked that off too. Had intentions of getting into the NE couloir of Lone Peak but Mother Nature had intentions of allowing me to ski just the lower snowfield.

Spring skiing is the best! Also nothing beats the look on the faces of the hikers going up Bells as you descend.

Saw this crack from a distance...had to test it out...might have to go for some FA's in the summer/fall.

Never know who you might meet on the summit registry
