Camp Muir Hike

Saturday, Matt and I hiked up to Camp Muir on Mt. Rainier! 5 miles and about 5000 feet of elevation gain later and I'm exhausted! As the pictures show, we showshoed up carrying our skis, then skied down. I felt great going up and pushed hard until camp. Skiing down was a totally different story! My legs were dead and feet were numb from my ski boots being too tight. I ended up just unclipping my ski boots and skiing down anyway. It was as if I had no clue how to ski though. I was worthless :)    Enjoy!


All bundled up!








So happy to be back at the car!!
