    Burnie Glacier Chalet 2017

    Burnie was challenging this year. Very cold temps, wind fucked alpine, every type of snow known to man within 20 turns on some pitches made for putting on the big boy pants. But hey, guided/catered trips with 3 kegs and 6 cases of good wine can't help but not suck. Eh?

    Yeah Lee, even a meh trip into the Burnie beats the shit out of a good week of working for the man.


    Especially if you put Monika's cooking into the mix.

    Even with crappy snow conditions that place looks incredible. I would be stoked on the views alone.

    That being said it can be hard to motivate to climb when you know there isn't killer snow to be found, we get conditions like that a lot here in AZ.

    Yeah RA, true story. It's absolutely stunning and remote and BIG. You can't change the weather or do it last minute (generally), so you get what you get. I think it's my 14th time in there so given the fact I've probably had pow 10 or 12 of those times.... it's all good!

    Gary, I've been eyeing that area with Google Earth ever since you and Al described it to me last year. Thanks for putting up the pictures. Looks awesome! I want to come up to visit that hut.

    Nice TR, looks like a good time and some great views.
    I don't work and I don't save, desperate women pay my way.
