tolovana


Another great trip out to Tolovana Hot Springs. How to describe that place? Maybe just the fact that I keep going back says enough. It's always a bit epic getting out there, tho fortunately this year was a beach walk compared to our new years trip lastyear. The hot springs are always a delight - even this year with the clouds and snow hiding the aurora. The cabin is always full of good folk, great food, and good cheer. It's always a trip of excess, this year was no exception (Trevor brought 90 little sausages - for 15 people?? and that doesn't even include the 3 tubs of yogurt, 12 pounds of granola, fruit and pancakes that were also part of breakfast). You might think a grueling 12 mile ski would encourage some 'go lite' attitude - but then you wouldn't know the insane generosity of this crowd. The gray photos don't do it justice - it was really gorgeous with the fresh snow. Check Dan's, Ed, Lena, or Ted's blog for better photos.

Great pictures and a great story. (Did you eat ALL the sausages??)

I'm finally heading out to Tolovana for the first time in February with a big crew of folks. Can't wait!

Happy Thanksgiving,
