Jack’s Glacier, Dunderberg Peak, October 1, 2017

A new month was started with a trip to an old favorite, Jack’s Glacier, Dunderberg Peak.

At the bottom of the run I got a closer look at the frozen and cracked pond.

Michele, Makisha and Penny hiked up even higher while I took more runs on Jack’s “Glacier.” They found a good view of Hidden “Glacier”

This fun day was a fun way to start my 168th consecutive month skiing.
