Mammoth Trip, 2017

September 10

Mammoth Crest North

It's a very steep sandy descent. I go first, skiing in my boots. The cost of not falling on my butt like everybody else is boots full of rocks and sand that need to get cleaned out before hiking further. -F.

N.B. Those of us who fell on our butts did not escape the rocks and sand in our boots. -S.
