Snowy singletrack skinning
Sunday morning was a slow one after Saturday night's FearNada festivities, but we had decided we wanted some exercise and were able to find ourselves a trail to climb up on Skis & Skins. This took us up through some woods on the south side of the Rinerhorn, the summit of our little excursion being a random little hut where we devoured our sandwiches.
Descending the 500m-odd that we had gained back to the car was a bit awkward - with it being really quite difficult to know what method to use (skins on skis, which binding mode, etc). In the end I just took the skis off and stuck them on my pack, using poles for support on the (at times) very rocky/icy ground. Melissa kept the skis on and beat me down :-)
