Comments

Went for a chilly jaunt up NAK shoulder today. Quite windy, with wind transport happening on and off throught the morning. Snow in the trees lower down was still nice and fluffy. The higher we climbed the worse the wind effect was. The top third was survival skiing. The views at the top were great though.
