Kosher Salt/Flour & Mountain Gear #1














Today's snow at the Bird resembled a mix of Kosher salt and flour. Information shall be posted to inform readers about choices regarding mountain gear.

#1 - Hats are one of the least important and simple pieces of mountain gear. Look for a double layer over the ears and a tight weave to resist the 70 mph. winds on Little Cloud. Dangling tassels that flap in the breeze are always a nice touch. Avoid fuzzer hats as the little fuzzer nasties tend to stick to goggles in the "on head" position and then leap into eyeballs when positioned "on face." Collect hats, share hats, wash only when absolutely necessary. Correct choice can make one giggle and sing giddily on the mountain.
