Mount Hunter View from our Tent


Post by WildSnow.com blogger | June 1, 2010      


Louie and I are napping but got woken up by some arrivals near our tent. I leaned out and noticed Mount Hunter peaking out of the clouds. Noble.

    Napping on a sunny day..or is it actually 4am… :sleeping:

    BTW ,,,,the Anchorage Museum of Art has an exhibit of 40 AK photo’s from the B. Washburn collection on display beginning yesterday. (his first photos of Alaska were from his studio in Valdez in 1936) Might be worth checking out once you are done with your mission.

    Be safe and ski hard..Good luck

    Good Luck Lou and Louie. Looks great up there, hope you get good weather. Hope to try my set up you helped me with on the Pass this weekend, but I would rather be trying it up there. Be safe.
