First winter on the golf course didn't disappoint. Knee-deep in spots and really worked me over.

Golf course. Flat light and new snow made way finding a chore.

The odds were in my favor today. Looks like I'll be doing Hardrock in July.

ALPINE LOOP

Between shifts snuck away for a quick loop run. Like running in sugar. Snow hasn't gone through its freeze-thaw cycles so its still not compacting. Still fun.

Quick run out to the golf course, short loop, and back between shifts. Deep snow on the north end. 5 mi run felt like twice that. Good workout.

American Fork Canyon (Hike)

From Pinehollow up to meadow at Mud Flats intersection with Ridge Trail (57) (3 mi one way--a bit shorter on return trip). First time north on this section. Only one other set of tracks from the Salamander Flats split.

Beautiful winter day.

Camp Williams in blowing snow. Neats and a few other were there. Just a quick run but pretty cool area--BONUS saw an enormous buck.

ALPINE LOOP

AF Gate up and over to Aspen Grove and back. Soft (unpacked) snow made footing difficult but magical day on the mountain. Light snow, perfect temps. Mmmm.

TIBBLE FORK UP TO RIDGE LINE TRAIL VIA TR. NO. 041

First time on this trail. Good climb to the ridge line. Would love to continue over to the top of the Alpine Loop but ran out of time. Snowshoers had packed the trail down fairly well. Super fast down hill--at least the last two miles from the Mud Flats split. Planning on spending some more time up there getting familiar with all of the different trails.
