11th Annual New Years Day Trip
Looking to avoid some bad weather, we drove east to the Blewett Pass area. We started off Hwy 97 south of the pass on the Old Blewett Pass Highway. We brought skis for a quick return down the hill. We had a few objectives but snow conditions and weather would decide exactly what we would do.
