Beuzenberg Peak, Two Thumb Range, 25 - 26 July 2009

A fun trip on skis and snow-shoes in a sparkling white landscape. Snow conditions were marginal - slabs had released naturally on very low angled slopes - which meant we had to modify our route more than once. And decision making wasn't always easy.
Party: Nic Dussex, Nic Barth, Lara Wilcocks, Danilo Hegg
