Went for a hike up single cone with Mahi Manes filming for the first episode of Diaries down under. I’ve never been up there so it was cool to finally go for a closer look. I have always looked at the lines though the cliffs on the lookers left so was hoping they would turn out good. As we hiked up another shute came into view that looked quite good, long, narrow and steep, on the right, next to and above a bunch of big cliffs. Decided to try go with that so Mahi and I started the hike. Turned out to be quite a long hike and steeper than I thought, the top was pretty steep and scary, hiking over ice and rock over cliffs and along the ridge above Lake Alta. Wished I stayed in bed that morning for a while. The view of remarks and looking out to double cone and the weather station was pretty impressive. The run was pretty good, long and fast. It was a bit of a relief to get to the bottom in the end. Looking forward to going back out there, some amazing lines to be had!
