Winter is on its way, the snowline is creeping down and some lucky people are getting out in the mountains for their first turns of the season.  Thought I would share a few images from a highlight ski tour in Strathcona park last winter.  Mount Jutland was the goal of the trip and  with 5 keen skiers we set up a base camp at Circlet lake to explore the lines on the mountain over a weekend last March.
