Alex thought we were staying over night on Wedge mountain, so he brought his extra pasta |
|
final hike to 7th, it was too much for us at this point. Almost waist deep. |
|
After a little bit of boarding we decided to call it and bail, ride the snow out until the end. |
|
Brodey ate shit trying to ride across the road. |
|
We made it midway down wizard chair on some dicey terrain. |
|
Indulging after the expedition. |
