Sunday was a new start for ski touring at Snoqualmie Pass. We tried to get an early start.

| The parking lot wasn't too crowded...strangely there were a handful of emergency vehicles there too. A fellow looky-loo claimed they'd found a body, but we checked the newspapers the next day and I think he was pulling our leg(s). |
There was snow! Immediately! Already a head-start from yesterday.

| Murray came with. |
 |
| Nom nom Clif Bar. |
 |
| We took a break and had lunch on Snow Lake. Is that a penguin back there? |
 |
| Snow angel on Snow Lake--we were just excited to play in the snow since we haven't gotten any of that stuff in WI. |
Sometimes I still got a little frustrated. We're not very good at route finding yet. At times, hiking was a constant stream of obscenities that ranged from internal monologue to inaudible muttering to completely discernible (but nonsensical) phrases.

| Grumpy Gus after some tough skinning. |
It was a good "learning experience", shall we say...and I suppose we got a couple of good turns in.

| Skiing down the Dome. |
