I arrived at the Palisade farm to irrigate one last time and to finalize packing for the elk hunt beginning Saturday in the Flat Tops. Studded snow tires are mounted on the old Tundra to pull the '67 Prowler camp trailer up the snowy road to camp. There was a good foot of snow exiting Eisenhower and over Vail pass, so it will be white around camp. It looks like the best chance for fresh snow is next Monday. I'll see if this old body can still climb Burro Mountain and down into the South Fork.
