Day 0 Evening of the 18th. 1.5 miles ski in to hut. The weather was so hot in FoCo I wore a sun dress, which seemed easier to keep on than change clothes. The sun dress proved quite comfortable over all.
When we got to the hut, the propane tank was buried under snow. So first thing was first...

Day 1
After a gourmet breakfast (gluten-free fench toast!!) and the great "spare propane tank" dig we prepare for the ski up.
