| Here in the Pacific Northwest, we are blessed with deep winter snows and long cool springs which help preserve the mountain snowpack, making possible year-round skiing and snowboarding. Summer skiing in the Cascades can provide some of the nicest backcountry conditions of the year: a fast, consolidated, and consistent snowpack; warm, sunny weather; and long hours of daylight. The major Cascade volcanoes (Mt. Rainier, Mt. Baker, Mt. Adams, and Mt. Hood) have on their flanks extensive backcountry skiing, snowboarding, and ski touring terrain which becomes accessible as spring progresses into summer. Long skiing and boarding runs are available even into September, at which time new snow typically begins to accumulate on higher elevation snow fields. This is a gallery of images which appeared on the Turns All Year home page in the past. Thumbnail images on this page can be clicked to view the full-sized photos, and lead into a slide show sequence for the gallery. The photos are from year round backcountry skiing trips in the Washington Cascade Mountains, one photo from each month of the year. | |
