The trail was actually dry or just a bit muddy for maybe 10-20% of the way.  Then there was just a lot of packed snow.  Which got less and less packed as we got higher.  We stopped at the teahouse for a quick bite to eat (the Moosling had a suck on a vegemite sandwich and a banana), then fled the horrible wind, and did some good butt-sliding on the way down.  The butt-sliding was the main reason I kept carrying the Moosling on my front, as I&#8217;d have much preferred the weight on my back.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/evilmoose.smugmug.com\/Hiking\/Bow-Valley-Hiking-2011\/P4015007\/1238418084_iDTMB-M.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Photos from Kristy (because I forgot my camera!!)<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/evilmoose.smugmug.com\/Hiking\/Bow-Valley-Hiking-2011\/P4015005\/1238415950_G27Mi-M.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Do you wanna go skiing?&#8221; &#8220;Yeah, ok.&#8221; &#8220;How about Mount Shark?&#8221; &#8220;Yep, sounds good.&#8221; &#8230;.. &#8220;The road over Whiteman&#8217;s Gap keeps being closed due to avalanche.&#8221; &#8220;And it sounds like the trails will be bullet-proof anyway.&#8221; &#8220;Yeah, lets not go skiing there.&#8221; &#8220;I&#8217;d still like to get out and do something.&#8221; &#8220;Yeah.&#8221; &#8220;How about we [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[24,1,123,14,17],"tags":[56,1548,135,1542],"class_list":["post-3179","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-canada","category-general","category-hiking","category-snow","category-trip-reports","tag-canmore","tag-hiking","tag-mount-lady-macdonald","tag-snow"],"author_meta":{"display_name":"megan","author_link":"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/?author=1"},"featured_img":null,"coauthors":[],"tax_additional":{"categories":{"linked":["<a href=\"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/?cat=24\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">canada<\/a>","<a href=\"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/?cat=1\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">general<\/a>","<a href=\"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/?cat=123\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">hiking<\/a>","<a href=\"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/?cat=14\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">snow<\/a>","<a href=\"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/?cat=17\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">trip reports<\/a>"],"unlinked":["<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">canada<\/span>","<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">general<\/span>","<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">hiking<\/span>","<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">snow<\/span>","<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">trip reports<\/span>"]},"tags":{"linked":["<a href=\"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/?cat=17\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">canmore<\/a>","<a href=\"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/?cat=17\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">hiking<\/a>","<a href=\"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/?cat=17\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">mount lady macdonald<\/a>","<a href=\"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/?cat=17\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">snow<\/a>"],"unlinked":["<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">canmore<\/span>","<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">hiking<\/span>","<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">mount lady macdonald<\/span>","<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">snow<\/span>"]}},"comment_count":"2","relative_dates":{"created":"Posted 15 years ago","modified":"Updated 15 years ago"},"absolute_dates":{"created":"Posted on 1.4.2011","modified":"Updated on 3.4.2011"},"absolute_dates_time":{"created":"Posted on 1.4.2011 1:36 pm","modified":"Updated on 3.4.2011 1:44 pm"},"featured_img_caption":"","series_order":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3179","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3179"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3179\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3180,"href":"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3179\/revisions\/3180"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3179"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3179"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evilmoose.me\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3179"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
