I do feel better now. That pint of Yukon Jack last night is killing that cold. :D

I second that... and can't wait for the pictures to show up.

 

Thanks for organizing this TotemLake... interested to see where the next month will bring.

We would enjoyed having you and the MR along.

 

That being said, this has been a moderately successful series of hikes for 2006 when you consider it started late and I had to call off my being there at least 3 times. I want to thank everybody for joining me on these hikes! It was a lot of fun for me as it appears it was for you.

 

I will go through the HOTM caches and post the best pics of each hike here in this thread.

 

Look for the 2007 thread to begin soon with a snowshoe hike in mind!

Hmmm...do they have a weight limit on how much tonnage a snow shoe will hold up? :laughing:

I can tell you without a doubt a 36" boat held up 280 lbs (that's me plus backpack), in soft snow over 6 feet deep. In the below picture, the pole was extended to 5 feet. I'm not touching the ground with it, and I didn't touch the ground when I stuck the pole down with my arm in the snow to the elbow.

One of my requested breaks. You were foraging berries just off the trail.

 

As for the next hike... I haven't planned it yet. I'll be looking at hydnsek's suggestion of a snowshoe hike here or something similar.
