Yea, the "off-season" is an amazing time to recreate. Road biking in October, skiing in May, camping in September...they all yield an experience unique from the main seasons. Why skiers will go crazy to ski on 4" of new snow with no base in October but will abandon a 100" base and 10" of new in late April/early May is and may always be a mystery. @Adventure-Some – thanks for chiming in.

My wife and I prefer camping/backpacking during the fall & winter. There are less people and no bugs (we hate mosquitoes& ticks!) Just because we have to pack more to stay warm at night, doesn't mean it's not worth it. Glad that you had such a wonderful trip, and thanks for sharing it with us! Those are some beautiful pictures. I can't wait to go skiing again, it's been far too long. There’s nothing like hitting a popular spot in an “off-season” and having it all to yourself.
