Rabbit Lakes... errrr, Ptarmigan Pass!

This Sunday, Ben, Bruce, and I set out to run to Rabbit Lakes. We were skeptical about how much snow would still be up there but decided go out there and find out for ourselves. The beginning of the trail was in great shape...

This is what running on it looked like...

However, a short ways up, we encountered more and more snow.

Only to find more dry sections of trail in between the snowy bits.

Rabbit Lakes is in the center of the picture, directly under the un-friendly looking cloud build-up. After more snow running, we decided to forgo Rabbit Lakes and head up Ptarmigan Pass which was conveniently directly to the right of the trail.

After a bit of work...

We got to the Pass ridge.

And took it back down to the car.

The weather looked dodgy for most of the outing but save for a bit of rain and some snow on the Pass, it worked out great. 

Cheers,
