Trip one of offseason was an unplanned exploratory mission into lake fork of the Beartooth mountains. Driving out to red lodge with Chris and Chad, we turned up the road towards Whitetail mountain and quickly found that the late spring low elevation storm had drifted the road in over 10 miles from the trailhead. Tacking that on to a 10+ mile approach, it was game over. With the bags packed, days free, and still in the early hours of the morning, we quickly opened the map up on the hood, pointed at the next drainage over, and went for it.
Long story short we didn't find a lot of great skiing, but we found some rad mountains, and after some looooong walkin we did get up to were the snow was and get some skiing in.
