    Hard Water and Insanity

    Went fishing on the hard water.


    However the drive over and back were insane and not something I will ever do again. Over 200 miles of icy snow covered roads, with up 70+mph winds.

    Here is the sign that greeted me at the beginning of the drive home. It didn't help that 4 skiers had been caught in an avalanche just the day before in the same area.


    Here's what driving in 70+mph wind looks like. There were times when it turned to a complete whiteout. It was extremely intense and stressful.

    While these mountains are beautiful knowing that death can and often does occur at any moment does take a litte of the fun out of it. I'm just glad to be home alive.
