Just like the "Road Closed" sign heading up the Portal road. wink

Apeman, great to hear from you!! Yup: had surgery on the 22nd of September and have spent the fall rehabbing, including Mt. Gould 5 weeks out, Mammoth Ski opener 7 weeks out, and so on. It still aches when my legs get tired or when the weather changes (the latter is actually helpful), but I have even tried easy jogging on some downhills the past few days! Time to put this truck in gear!

Now, for some further insight to the whole lake skating thing:

This is a 7" ice screw inserted near the east end of Tenaya Lake on Christmas Eve.



I also ran into some familiar faces out there on the ice that morning:



That's Rob and Laura Pilewski, backcountry rangers stationed at Crabtree, now up at Tuolumne for the winter. (SCORE of a job!)
