nordic ski tour: shingle creek (uintas) - January 15, 2012
Cross-country ski tour. The route offers challenging terrain up to the 10,062 saddle overlooking Erickson Basin. Generally, lighter weight backcountry touring gear (with scales or skins) is used, however skiers need to make their own gear choices. The choice of gear should be based on the individual's skill level matched to gear weight to ensure safe and efficient travel. Beacons and shovels required. Pre-trip stop at Kamas Coffee for drinks and gear check. The organizer plans to set a track on this route several days before the trip. Contact trip organizer if driving from Park City. Meet at 7:45 am for a prompt 8:00 am departure.
