Mt. Shavano

Andrea and I headed down towards Salida and took a shot at climbing and skiing Mt. Shavano in winter. It was a long, tiring day... and the snow wasn't all that great. Still, it was a very rewarding day. We skied 5,400 feet - from just below the summit right to the trunk of my jeep. I posted the full trip report on 14ers: http://www.14ers.com/php14ers/tripreport.php?trip=7724

March 2010 Recap

SPRING BREAK!!! Well, not exactly for me... but I had spring break visitors for the full month! Andrea for the first week, Jenna for the second, and Hannah/Pete/DR for the third (with everyone overlapping for a weekend). We had an awesome time... started off with my first calendar winter 14er ascent, then skied slushy snow in unseasonably warm temps for a while, and closed it out with one of the deepest powder days I've ever skied. Gotta love spring in Colorado! (Photos)
