3 days of snowshoe backpacking the Little Elbow trail in freezing weather - tent camping in the snow
Chef Evan Robertson and I hiked all 30+ km of the Little Elbow trail this weekend. We started at the Elbow Pass trail head on Highway 40. We camped at Tombstone on night 1. The temperature that evening was -16C and dipped below -20C at night. Day 2 we hiked through the pass and stopped at Romulus for the second night. That night we were able to hang out around a fire without gloves as the temperature climbed to a balmy -2C. We hiked out on day 3 to the Little Elbow Campground on highway 66 south of Bragg Creek.
Once again we enjoyed some gourmet cooking, courtesy of Evan.
