  2. What a fantastic day for it yesterday!! We were on Tom/Field/Willey and couldn't stop talking about how amazing it was to get a day like this in December. Your pictures are beautiful! Really surprised that you didn't run into more people on a day like that. The friend that we hiked with yesterday was doing a Twins/Bonds traverse today and wondering what the conditions would be like up there. Based on your report they're having a great day today!

  3. Really great pictures, I was up in the Wildcats and Carters that day and couldn't believe how nice the weather was! It was nice to get another long hike in, now I'm ready for the snow!
