Skyline Trail Loop — Saturday, Feb. 10, 2018

My 10 year old son and I snowshoed a short distance above Paradise roughly on the Skyline Trail and picked a spot with a perfect view of the Mountain. The snow was firm, but every few steps I'd posthole to my knees so snowshoes were a plus. It gets dark early at Paradise so bring a deck of cards or a book to occupy you after dinner and before sleep. We stayed warm with 0F degree bags and pads with at least an R-value of 4. A bottle of hot water at our feet helped, too.
