Table Mountain

Talked my buddy Chris into ending a three year ski touring hiatus today! Ben joined us for a tour up Table Mountain in the Bishop Creek drainage.

Looking up Bardini Canyon.

Really nice view of Mt Humphreys.

Ben skins into the sky.

Chris cruises up with the big valley behind him.

Snack break on the summit was delightful. Totally calm and comfortable despite some pretty cold air temps.

The head of Jawbone Canyon, on the right, looking enticing.

The High Sierra from Mt Darwin on the left to Mt Emerson on the far right.

Basin and Tom

Ben thoroughly enjoying the upper canyon.

Chris lower down. Spectacular skiing!

Our handiwork.

Perfect weather, ridiculously good skiing, and great friends. It was so much fun seeing Chris enjoy himself up in the mountains! A truly special day.
