Brrr... shiver... shiver!!!
We had our snow experience for the year today!!
We met up with TJ06 (Ryan and Cat) and Coolwhip (Rex, Erica and their two children) at the McD's on Carefree Hwy. We wasted no time and quickly made our way to Bumble Bee and on to Crown King. We stopped at the saloon for a coke. In hindsight, I should of asked if they had any hot chocolate because it was pretty darn cold up there.
There was little to no snow on the way up to Crown King and I was getting worried I took everyone up there for nothing after promising them some snow, especially the children. We left Crown King and turned left for Horse Theif Basin where we quickly found the elusive snow. It was a couple of feet deep. We missed the turn off for the Lake, so we headed back the way we came. We stopped for an hour, ate lunch and let the kids play in the snow. After lunch we headed back to the Senator Hwy and on to the cut off for Mayer. It was a long day, but the snow and cold air were refreshing. We ended the run in Mayer and everyone headed for home.
It was nice seeing some new faces on the trail today and we hope to see everyone again soon!!
Thanks everyone for a fun day in the snow!!
