Diane and I got out for a few hours of Hiking today .. we’ve been exploring the backcountry south of bamforth ridge .. we’re now using a better gps and can make our way anywhere trails or not . Today we were on the north side of Gleason brook and aimed to explore an old logging or farming path we call “upper Gleason ” we got to the end of that pretty high on the ridge when we noticed another set of tracks in the snow . It was a single person .. most likely a man because the size of the prints . They were just going up.. no return path so we were intrigued.. it is really unusual to find signs of others that far from a trail or road .
We followed the lone hikers tracks for a couple of hours .. way up on a ridge a couple of miles north of camels hump. It was a beautiful route .. it took us to a very cool couple of ice falls and eventually looped ya Mack close enough to where we left our car that we could bushwhack down a steep ruse to find it
We feel so blessed to live in such a beautiful place.… Great way to end out a crazy tough and interesting year
Nite all, nite sam
