| Our third and last day of our level 1 course involved a full day tour in Teton National Park. It started out with a 2-3 mile skin to the base of Wimpy's Knob. |
 |
| Our seasoned guide and instructor, Jim, who also guides for Chugach Powder Guides, a heli-skiing outfit in Alaska, points out our various options for the day. |
 |
| Ideally we want to summit Albright Peak (peak on the left). However, if ideal snowpack, weather, or avalanche conditions don’t exist, we’ll have to either scratch our plans and shoot for the summit of Wimpy’s knob (to the right) or possibly turn back sooner. |
 |
| We’re getting closer to the top of Wimpy’s and have a good view of Albright Peak. |
 |
| Ahhh, finally to the top of Albright Peak after a 5 hour climb. Jack says hello to his 2nd grade class he is helping teach, 2W. |
 |
| Coming down is the easy part. (But it still took an hour!) |
Too cool for school. More pics, more posts...we love 'em!
