Although we had a lot of family stuff this weekend, I was lucky enough to be able to have another go at Erebus this weekend. The temperatures were forecast to be 30 degrees warmer than last weekend. I assumed the trail conditions would be ice tracks with puddles and slush. I was so certain of this that I put my microspikes on my boots the night before. I left my snowpants at home this time because I didn't want to get overheated in the 35-40 Farenheit temps. Last weekend, Sunny had issues with iceballs on his feet even though I thought I'd prepped him well enough. Wendy helped me pick out a razor and a treatment for the paws.
