Thwarted

Today I thought I would go up Remarkables for a snow shoe to check out the ice lines. The Ski field website said closed but in the last couple of hours the snowline had shrunk back so I thought it would be fine. I was so Confident that even when I got to the road closed barrier I let myself through...The grader had been through I hadn't needed chains yet. Soon however I met the grader and beyond that the snow was too thick for me, about a foot deep Maybe a truck would get up but if you got stuck I wouldn't expect help getting out with all the warnings!( Pack shovel next time)


Turned back, I took a few tourist shots,  met a few girlfriends for coffee, and then rode my bike up Skyline where I bumped into a guy Tim I met at 7 mile last week and did a couple of runs with him and his mate Pete (Turd Sandwich is super slippery!)
