Colorado Backcountry: Sled Recovery - 01.07.2007

My friend Andrew gave me a call and needed help getting his sled (blown engine) out of the backcountry. We used the Mountain Lite to tow his sled down and back to the trailhead. It was much easier then we anticipated as we were battling 80 mph winds and lots of blowing snow. Here are a few shots. Photos by Alex.

A shot from Saturday at a new recon spot. Way cold and very windy we were forced to build a huge snow cave and setup the black diamond megamid.
