Last weekend Kay and I went for a nice hike / scramble just outside the resort's boundary. For me, it is always fun to get up into the high alpine terrain above 13,000'. We enjoyed looking down into The Basin and across Chihuahua Gulch to 14'teeners Grays and Torreys We probably saw almost 50 mountain goats including a number of really cute little, bitty "kids". Along the ridgeline we got battered by the wind, but that was part of the fun and the excitement. Summer is a magical time at The Basin.
