Gold Mint Hike

It was much too nice out to simply head home after skiing.  My friend Pam and I went on down to Gold Mine Trail and hiked another 3 miles.  A lot of the trail was clear of snow but we did start to encounter some ice about 1/2 mile in.  I had to wear my ice grippers to keep from falling on my face.  This time of year I would expect to be skiing up here.  But it looks like winter is going to hold off for a little while longer.
