This winter I have climbed Sharatin Mountain to ski far more than usual. Today was my 5th time up there this year. All the other times the weather has been sunny and clear. Not so today - today was foggy, windy and overcast. But I kind of liked the change. All the wildflowers blowing in the wind and the clouds of mist scudding by. And also, unlike the other times, it has gotten very green up there.
Last week on Afognak we could see the big, snow-filled bowl on Sharatin mountain from our place at Lipsett Point. Nora so wanted to go ski it! So today I did go ski it! There is still a mile long run to be had if you ski from the summit. I actually did not go to the true summit because it was basically a whiteout up there. Patrick
