We had such a good time last weekend that we decided to head back up to Mt. Lassen for more. Can you believe that we were arcing turns on July 18? Another bonus, Kellan Adams joined us as the requisite rookie of the trip. It turned out that quite a lot of snow had melted in the last week, and we had to do some treacherous rock traverses on foot to get to the good stuff, but it was worth it...there was definitely good snow to be had if you were willing to work for it. Good show gang!
We made camp time a bit more interesting this week with a mean game of Polish Horseshoes. Once I got my throwing glove, the Lange siblings were pretty much unstopable!
Kellan arrived just in time for a family battle, Langes vs. Adams. Lange's were victorious!
John and Josh demonstrating the rules of the game... try to throw your frisbee and knock down the other team's beer can and ski pole. Try to catch the frisbee and save your own beer can and ski pole. Keep beverage in hand at all times.
The crew was up and at 'em bright and early. And this week's bonus: the trail was open all the way to the summit!
Kellan and Josh charging the hike.
A victorious Josh smiling at the summit.
Kellan modeling our route down (well part of it, there was more snow higher up).
John scouting out a good route.
Katharine and Josh rejoicing at the summit.
Whoah, looks like Kellan found some large dong in the most unlikely of places..??
Yep, that's my well-hung man over there!
Enough joking around, its time to boot up and head out.
Josh and Kellan were all smiles after their glorious arcs.
