A beautiful calm and clear day on Bow Falls today, Dec 30th. A wee
chill in the air, -27 on the car thermometer at 7:30 am.
One 5 meter wide swamp on Bow Lake where water has come up and
flooded the ice surface. A small hassle with snow shoes gumming up
with ice sludge, would be a bigger hassle with skis and skins.
The route is in fine shape with scant evidence of previous ascents.
Happy trails,
Barry Blanchard
