Drove over an hour to the trailhead and realized I left my poles. Thankfully that was the one piece of gear Mother Nature can replaced. They stuck with me for all of the 13 hours, 14 miles, and 4.5k vert it took to ski this remote Montana peak. It’s still winter up high!

15 hour day with a ton of bushwhacking through deadfall over the trail. Skied the western “Y” Couloir in pretty good conditions. Took us 8 hours to summit and that was the most tired I’ve ever been skiing.
