January - Sphinx Mountain, Montana

Our first expedition of 2008 led us to the southern end of the Madison Valley towards Yellowstone National Park. We were battered by strong winds on the drive down but the protection of the trees made the wind much more tolerable. We snowshoed up the Bear Creek drainage and set up camp on Saturday and then went further towards Sphinx Mountain on Sunday. It was a beautiful trip and Ziek was thoroughly exhausted by Sunday afternoon.
