Went out with the dog today. Skinned a few miles up a groomed snowmobile trail to a mellow line you can see from the road by my house. Conditions were a thick, mostly supportable crust that eventually softened up in the sun.

After that I skinned up to try to get a shot of skiing with the lake in the background. After digging the pit, I wasn't psyched to do it. So I bailed.

Good day overall.

Perspectives video 4mb-3min

The pit depth was about 3.5ft to the ground. You will see a shear layer about 1.5ft down and then again about 2.5ft down when it finally fails. The pit was dug on a less than 30 degree slope for safety, because I was alone. The lower foot of snow in this shallow snowpack is totally rotted out from the November dry spell.

Very artistic! Dig the camera on the skis themselves.

Looks like a fun day with the dog in the good ole outdoors!!!
