Dave scouting where to set up camp near Agate Creek on Monarch Pass.
Dave digging a tent pit at our campspot for the night. I wish we had video footage of us trying to avoid constant post-holing by waddling around on our cross country skiis to gather firewood, etc.
Thanks to being surrounded by plenty of dead wood, here is our campfire, which without would have led to a longer, colder night.
Sunset Ridge, Crested Butte
Maia and Dave cross country skiing up Cottonwood Pass.
Maia is founder of an outdoor advenure company based out of NYC. Check out the website http://www.urbanescapesnyc.com/. It's pretty impressive to see what she has put together in less than a year.
Dave emerging from our camp spot on Cottonwood Pass into 8" of fresh snow. It might look like he is coming out of a rabbit hole, but it's a pretty cool spot inside. We at like kings and I spent most of the night trying to figure out how to keep cool.

Big smile!There is my winter in short.
Wear your kayaking thick skins to keep you warm in the snow, but try to wash them a couple of times prior or else you will smell like a dirty kayaker and that certainly is NOT steezy.
