Left the valley at 7am and headed to Flag. I stopped and got my backcountry permit and I was at the TH at 10. I saw a Bald Eagle on my drive from Phx...it was perched high in a tree right outside Munds Park. I parked right before the end of FS552 and was off. I started with a wicking shirt and light jacket. I heated up pretty fast.

Fast forward to Lockett Meadow...I was standing there naked in the field and thought of the hiking naked thread :scared: . I changed clothes and had lunch there and then headed towards Inner Basin. I only took my shoes off to change...last snowshoe was almost all hike. This one was all snowshoe and it was totally awesome. I mostly stayed on the trail, but did do some off trail climbing and descending. Hopefully, the storm predicted next week will dump more snow.
