exploring YNP

Cache Creek and SW Amphitheater Mtn. from near the Needle





Brought a mid, a Jet-boil, a couple HMG rucks, a rope, an intervalometer, and a 40 degree below bag, Deep into Yellowstone Park. 

Exceptionally good time exploring.  :)

We were eventually thwarted on skiing through the Eye of the Needle, but now have the complex route dialed and are enthusiastic for a return.

  1. I'm still thinking about your choice of title for this post. Haven't thought of anything witty to say about it tho.

    1. Nick, sometimes a good night's sleep is worth its weight in gold. (pulled 12 hrs :)

      Definitely scheming on sleep systems though. For real deal missions.
