Finally got the chance to climb Harris Hill on Wednesday with my friend Jason,
while spending the night at our friend's cabin located near the base of the
mountain. We got a bit of a late start, but after getting all set up at the camp
we headed out the door, and started uphill through deep powder.
Before long we had great views toward the Dix Range under blue-bird skies.
As we climbed higher, we were rewarded with more open views toward the
west, with Ensign Pond Rd below.
We climbed a little higher, where the winds really started to pick up, and
enjoyed the growing view which now included Giant and Rocky Peak Ridge.
After a short break and an hour & a half of breaking trail up the mountain,
we decided to head back down to the cabin to make dinner, saving the other
two summits for another day.
After supper, we enjoyed some cold beers and some good tunes beside the warmth
of the woodstove, where I was on the losing end of a game of chess and a
game of spades. :mad: :banghead:
In the morning we made breakfast, and closed up the cabin.
Before heading home, we took a few rides in our Jet-sleds down the hill
along the trail to the camp, which I recorded with my Iphone.
Unfortunately, it was very difficult to hold the phone and steer,
and I crashed a few times lol... :rolling: ...
