Bonney Glacier

by Newschoolers
Apr 5th 2010 - 0 comments

After our day up Connaught we decided to go somewhere that the wind may not have wrecked. So we headed up Loop brook and skied the morraine runs. The skiing was epic, so different from the previous day. Tommy,a photographer from Backcountry.com was up taking photos and I hoped we would get some in the Bonney.  It is such a magnificent place, we could get him some decent shots there. We had some perfect powder, hero skiing, and occasionally we had some sun to accompany this great skiing. Needing my extra vert I pushed through a whiteout and we had one of the best runs of the year. Knowing it was so good we headed up again on Thursday and went deeper into the glacier for some great turns, a little whiteout and flat at times but really great. And then we headed up the climbers left glacier towards Mt-Clarke This was a really exciting glacial up, with big junks of blue glacier all around us. Super fun and then a fun down, some where I had never been. Yet somewhere I will surely return. All's well otherwise, just sitting up in the comforts of CMH and enjoying some Heli assisted ski touring. More on that to come.
