Kustatan Overnight

Mike and I are now on the exact same work schedule and we had planned to head out sunday, monday or tuesday and sunday seemed to work out best so off we went. My plane is grounded with some radio issues so we took his. It was supposed to be a day trip, but turned into a 20 mile snowmachine trip in 20 below temperatures, a little frostbite, and a few good photos. The photographs are of the mountain that Jordan and I hope to climb this spring. Mike and I scouted the route and he roughed in the landing strip that we will probably use. I landed at the strip a couple of times this summer, but have never landed there during the winter. The landing area is to the west of the mountain and we will leave my plane there while we traverse across the south face, spend the night, climb the south east ridge and return to plane the following day if all goes well. You can see the tracks that mike left in the third picture, and the route is the left ridge in the fourth photo. There is also a photo of mike and a shot of another range further east in first two shots.
cheers,
