When we reached the top of Forester Pass and came up and over the saddle of the mountains all we saw was snow everywhere. No real trail in sight, with only some vague signs of where some other hikers had trekked through before us.
I was pretty intimidated as we started the descent down to the valley below from a whopping 13,000 feet. If worrying about sliding off the side of the mountain wasn’t bad enough, the snow was beginning to soften as we walked on top of it along it’s icy surface.
At times you would “post hole” meaning your foot would literally fall through the ice until it reached a rock or snow stream below, leaving your feet completely saturated and cold.
We continued on like this for miles and miles before we reached the tree line once again and started our way down through “Kings Canyon” which made it all worth the struggle down the side of the mountain. Glenn Pass is up next, and I hear it’s just as “fun”.
