Hiking Ajax Mountain Sunday, Nov 4

Ok, so now I've hiked half way up Ajax and literally walked over the various runs, gulleys, etc that cannot be covered with snow soon enough for Aspen folk. It was just a reminder that I'm hopeful that the same trail I walked today will be open for snow shoeing - cause there is NO WAY I have the nerve to ski down this mountain! I mean, I was thinking of taking a short cut and walking down the terrain between switchbacks.....too steep to walk......Whew, glad I got that out of my system, because I was actually thinking I might try skiing this year.......

the reason there is a photo of a chair is because between the bottom 2 cables is the thumbnail of what's left of the waning moon......just a beautiful sight!
