THis was a long long hike. Cleaned up yurt and stashed our sled with gear somewhere Beautiful landscapes going up the valley towards the lake. we were really beat by then but glad we got to the top. A few nice turns on the way down of the skier's left side of the South Fork Canadian river
WE headed out and got some sunny blue skies to skin out with. beautiful veiw of the nokhu crags and seven ute's, which we skied last week, from the trail
