I was watching a video on YouTube the other day that caused me to realize that both Nessmuk (George Washington Sears) and Horace Kephart mention virtually nothing about how to carry significant amounts of while in the . Kephart briefly mentions aluminium canteens and rubber water bladders, but that's about it. I had to get out my copies to re-read them to make sure.

Planning my first "back country" camping trip with a friend in the Porcupine Mountains of the UP of Michigan at the end of September. We'll be using the rustic cabins, so it's not true back country but in my mind close enough. I'm a seasoned camper and hiker, but never spent the night outside a campground.

Please share your must know pro tips and "man I wish someone told me that" wisdom.

There’s still plenty of snow on Shasta but the warm temps are taking a toll. I was fortunate to just spend five days in a row guiding on the mountain and am looking forward to returning.

Some pics from a cracking week ski-touring in the Bernese Oberland (now that I’m home and have some reception!)

Squeezed in an Evolution Valley ski tour in the High Sierra. Snow depth in high elevation basins and valleys was incredible but coverage on steep slopes wasn’t as fat, perhaps b/c of colder winter and fewer warmer storms.

As he was rounding the corner out from under the steeper pitch, the slope let go and ran. He was about 75 feet ahead of us, but the slide started just above us and then the crown ran back about 200 feet. The slide crossed just behind us (we were standing in a decent, lower angle spot above a rock bench. The slide ran for about 500(?) feet down the hill. Pics in next toot.

After an incredible winter full of shoveling and more shoveling, it’s wonderful to get out and enjoy spring in the mountains.

Primo Sierra corn above Emerald Bay today. On sunny slopes it was ripe around 11am and should be good mañana as well.

Fun tour on Angora Peak before the srain came. Totally different conditions as we changed aspects. The spring corn season should be amazing this year. Thanks to my buddy AC for the shots.

On my last ski trip, I managed to carry my heavy DSLR and telephoto zoom because I had a sled. Taking my camera from my sled, plugging my lens, focusing... It took time but those stayed calm. 😅
