    We went up in December and ended up just doing Sherburne’s Trail. We wanted to do Hillman’s Highway and the snow fields. Weather wasn’t horrible, but no visibility into the ravine at all so we just snowboarded down Sherb’s.

    Hi! Nice video! I’m not from the US and I want to go to cottonwood area for backcountry. Is there any “guide” app or videos to know better the area before being there? Whit some trails info and that stuff. Ty!

    Looks like a great day out - and not too many people out and about. Quick question: at the beginning, in addition to doing your avy beacon check, were you also measuring the weight of your pack? If so, why? For the walk in comfort factor, or also for the actual climb up /skiing itself?
