Mount Kelly

                                                      Mount Kelly December 13 2015


Mount Kelly is one of the easier  peaks near Manning park from John Baldwin's ski book with a fairly easy access and few options to ski down.

Me and Steven decided to go for Mount Kelly as a half day and do another small peak in Manning Park on skis.

We parked the car at the Alison pass shed where a worker cleared a parking spot for us from where we crossed the highway and went towards the old FSR which had few dead falls.





Half way on our way up we came up to the second descending option which goes into a nice gully pretty much all the day down to the gully and which is recommended in the ski book.



Soon we passed the towers and the terrain opened a bit and we were slowly making our way towards the summit.



Wasn't too long for us to reach the summit where we took our skins off and soon started our way back down to the car.





The skiing down was pretty fun, the snow was pretty good and the trees were not too tight.





Soon we got down to the gully which we followed almost all the way down to the highway and just before the highway we turned right to get back on our tracks and avoid some bushes.
