Lake O'Hara cross country skiing

Aleisha and I have really taken a liking to cross country skiing, so much so we went out and bought our own gear. Unfortunately there was a a bit of a stuff up with the shop we got our gear from and they ended up losing my boots. To compensate us they decided to give us the gear for FREE!
Our first trip out on our new kit was an overnighter to Lake O'Hara. The conditions were amazing with temperatures around -5 C and a foot of fresh powder on the ground.

I think it will take us a while to get sick of the scenery here.

Our accommodation for the night, the Elizabeth Parker Hut.
