Thanks to fresh snow falls the road was closed at Gate 3 at the Springs. The only way to go higher was to walk up the road and despite it being a work day there were a number of people walking up the road. I walked to &#8220;The Chalet&#8221;" at the 1000 m mark and that was enough for me knowing it would be cold walking downhill into the headwind.</p> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/USgxsawhWRexuoLwAP2-zl278yM/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/USgxsawhWRexuoLwAP2-zl278yM/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/USgxsawhWRexuoLwAP2-zl278yM/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/USgxsawhWRexuoLwAP2-zl278yM/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HobartDaily?a=hjieITkQJpI:0vA0ZHKgaZg:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HobartDaily?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HobartDaily?a=hjieITkQJpI:0vA0ZHKgaZg:YwkR-u9nhCs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/HobartDaily?d=YwkR-u9nhCs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HobartDaily/~4/hjieITkQJpI" height="1" width="1"/>http://hobartdaily.com/2009/07/06/the-road-to-the-pinacle/feed/0http://hobartdaily.com/2009/07/06/the-road-to-the-pinacle/HobartGreg2009-07-05T01:13:27-07:002009-07-05T01:13:27-07:00http://hobartdaily.com/?p=1393
