An attempted repeat of trips I did one and three years ago.

On Friday I just hiked up to the hut.

On Saturday I did the Kinsmen. I ran into Tish, whom I'd met a couple years ago on North Kinsman.

On Sunday I was going to hike to Cannon, but breaking trail was too difficult, so I bailed, and just went back down to the basin.

I was on snowshoes almost the whole trip.
