Hello again from Montana, everyone! I
finally got my butt out the door and onto the trail. The Swamp Dawg,
Molly and myself got out on the southwest side of the Bridger Mountains
in Bozeman/Belgrade Montana and went up Truman Gulch. Location information: https://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/custergallatin/recarea/?recid=81168 Photos: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ZESNiYpPzYoAfx7QAWe have had such little snow in the valley that I did this one in my boots instead of skis, skins or snowshoes. However,
there was quite a bit of snow up there, and this was before we just got
dumped on again (stay tuned: some actual skinning in future episodes
may actually be possible!) Molly and I got chilly, I realized I made at
least 3 significant errors in planning judgement, and we came back down.We ended up just under 5 miles, but you'll hear how deep the snow was with me crunching through it on the mic.I am certainly going to be more prepared next time and bring Molly's jacket!If you have other ideas about essentials I need to bring on my hikes, please let me know. I'd be grateful. Thanks for listening and we'll see you a little further down the trail.
