The trail from Windy Gap Cabin Started out on the Ice of fossil creek. I stayed on the ice and had missed where the trail turned off at first, but cut back over to the trail. The trail was good and it was nice to be in the trees and a little out of the wind. There was a long section of overflow ice on the trail where I had to unhook from the sled and ski along the willows. There were a few longer but less steep downhills.
More views along the trail of the limestone jags.
Rock outcropping where we cross fossil creek and make out way to the cabin.
The cabin is up on an exposed ridge. Quite a steep climb.
Nice panoramic views of the cabin from the knob above. (Click on the photo to see full size.)

Sun set, and sun dog.
Caribou Bluff Cabin. Small cozy. Heats up Nice. Good thing it was calm, it would have been hard to keep warm with it being so exposed.
Trapper and Blue are happy to be at the cabin.

Trapper made herself quite comfortable.
We had Caribou Green Chille Stew for dinner, with tortillas on the side. Some left over pita bread, but we gave the extra meat to the dogs. The hauled the weight, they deserve it. Hot Coco with peppermint snaaps for desert.
