Pine Road ski/hike
I took advantage of a snowy day to "traverse" from P16 to P15. Bryan and his buddy Rick were hiking in from P15 and I decided to ski from P16. We met in the middle at Herridge cabin. The fire was stoked when we got inside and with a couple of logs added there was an inferno that quickly toasted our foil wrapped sandwiches. Toasted a little too much but who's complaining. Nothing like relaxing by a roaring fire in one of many cabins in Gatineau Park. We would have sent a pic of the refreshments and the fire to those who "could not make it due to work" but the cell phone tower was out of range. After a hearty lunch, we hiked back to P15. Somehow, I managed to go mostly uphill on both the ski AND the hike.
I hope this is the first of many traverse outings in 2014. There are several great ones I have in mind:
- AMR to Elk Lake via Pinnacle Ridge
- Route 73 to Elk Lake via Great Slide and Macomb Slide
- Zealand to Lincoln Woods via the Bonds.
