From Byron:
"Yes, the only relief that I have had has been because of acupuncture."
Glad you've found something that works, low back pain chases me out of bed most mornings, keep it to a dull level with stretches walking, Chiropractor now and then.
I'll have to check into acupuncture if it gets worse.
masraum, that's Big Four (even though it has 5 minor peaks) at certain snow loads there is a giant number 4 created on the mountainside.
6160' tall and the site of the lowest ice cave in the lower 48 states. Road gets closed in winter, but it's a fun x-country ski or snowshoe in while it's closed.
Spring is entertaining with the right conditions avalanches bound down it creating lots of noise and visual treats- give it plenty of space for the run outs...
