This was our delayed annual week ski trip. I had wanted to travel reasonably lightly as between building my new darkroom and being down with a bad back recurrence I had only managed 15 minutes of exercise (on the nordic-track) in the two weeks preceding the trip (so I felt a little unprepared). My new tent missed out on a being christened again! This time because we needed a three man tent.

This trip was one had I wanted to do for a while and after deciding to run a marathon early next year and try to do it in under three hours this trip was doubling as a training exercise. I wanted to make it difficult so carried a lot of gear, my pack weighing 66 pound (30kg) as I left.
