Mt. Niblock April 27 2008





Well a great spring tour up Mt. Niblock. We had an early start and a tricky parking spot gave us a good jump on the day. A few hundred meters in to the tour I spotted some fresh bear tracks I thought that was really cool but just a little further down the trail we got to the train tracks and saw the bear eating grain, we were a good safe distance away so we watched for a minute and continued on up. About an hour further along the trail we got up in to the rock band and saw two beautiful mountain goats this was a great sighting. Wow we saw two rare and cool animals I know at this point it was going to be a great day. On our way down we passed 7 other people coming up our skin track. I just laughed as we skied the best lines down. Even though the skiing was not that great it is still rewarding to lay down the first track and leaving everyone else with sloppy seconds.
