It was a nice winter Sunday, and Nate and I were torn between another day of rock climbing or a day of playing in the snow. Given we had climbed (at Palisade Mountain) the day before, we decided on the latter. Mt. Lady Washington sounded like a good choice. The conditions were a bit less snowy than the previous March, so no snowshoes were needed.
Below is a small sampling of photos from the day out in the snow. It took us 5 hours and 45 minutes car to car, taking our time and enjoying the spectacular winter day in the mountains. (It was a bit humbling to recognize that I didn't think I could achieve my sub-4.5-hour time I had achieved in March. I was now noticing the altitude more. I had had
Covid-19 between my March 2021 and December 2022 ascents, so this could have have something to do with it....).
