Chris Hill, Blake Osmundsen, Trent Thelen and I bivied at the bustling Cold Springs trailhead Friday night and headed up 7,000 ft. or so to the top then skied down. Skied down most of the way at least. We did a wrinkle I’d never done before: traversing at 7,000 ft to the south side trade route instead of heading to the round the mountain trail and then walking the 3 miles back to Cold Springs. The verdict seemed to be that the traverse at 7k is better suited for earlier in the season or bigger snow years. We finished the day with cold brews at the car and Huckleberry shakes in Trout Lake. Yeeehaaaa!
