Not much activity in the mountains for me this summer. Climbed the Grand a month ago, and nothing since. With work 6 nights a week and no 2 consecutive days off, it’s been hard to get out. I’ve been training in the gym and running, but lately my motivation/health have been sub par. Another 5/6 weeks and I’m done, and believe me I have some plans.
Summer is a different beast of a season compared to the winter. In the winter you can ski a great long powder run, for example Albright, and still have time to have a beer at Dornans and take a nap before work. In the summer the days in the mountains are sooo long. Adequate sleep, and full days off are essential.
