| no partners | | Headed up Graham for a snowshoe.
Didn't encounter continuous snow until the 8000 foot mark.
I had four options and choose down Snow Flat road to the closed campground.
Beautiful snow covered road down to the very small frozen lake.
Left the snowshoes at the lake and out-n-backed the Snow Flat trail in boots.
Then back up Snow Flat road to the Swift Trail.
I then hit up Ladybug Peak on the drive back down, 50/50 mix of snow on the trail.
Cool beginning before the hike when I met 3 young UofA students on top radio collar tracking a gray fox.
Talked to them a bit about their research and watched as they circled around the antenna listening for the ping.
No ping and we parted ways with them heading to a new location and myself heading down to Snow Flat.
I had no idea gray foxes lived in such high altitude!
I enjoyed my day.
