Good memories

I have been getting excited about the ski season since Den and I both bought season passed to Snowbasin.
Then I was thinking about one of my favorite trips last year. Bloomington Yurt with a crew.

Just outside of Bear Lake is the amazing Bloomington canyon yurt. Tons of terrain within sight of the yurt and seemingly endless terrain within a couple hour tour. I have been exploring this area for about 3 years now and every year I find even better lines.

8 of us met up in the parking lot at about 8pm and loaded the sled. Two gear trips, one tow rope trip, 37.5 miles on the sled, and we finally got everyone to the yurt around 11:30pm.

With no snow at home for about 10 days we were all prepared for the worst conditions. We got to the yurt with a fresh 8-10in. YES!!!

When you have to dig into the yurt deck that sits about 5.5 feet of the ground you know it is a good sign. We woke up to a blue bird powder day smiles all around

There were stunning views as every climb to the ridge. Panoramasof the still unfrozen Bear Lake.
By lunch time we had tracked out what they call "red pine". More Smiles brought the end of a great trip.
