Any wet feet on the Henry Creek crossing? We stayed high and it was fine, but that low road looked interesting. Splitter day up there.
Well played. Looks like the conditions hinted at in Norseman's photo from the prow are reality.
outstanding shots as always. Does the Emmons corridor look way more broken up than usual, or is there something about the photo?
Good to see you had at least some of the same view that those of us who have skied with Ross have gotten used to: And that is of Ross way the hell ahead on the uptrack while looking like he's bar...

Ooh. Nice find. Was at the pass for the long weekend and found deteriorating conditions, going from decent pow on top of slop on Friday to horrifying trap crust on Saturday to begbie IPA at Village Id...
DAMN. Excellent.
Well played!
It's roughly between Sicamous and Revelstoke. Skier in the hood: PM incoming

There were a ton of tracks on the Emmons.
Awesome! I saw that line on a flight last month. It's beautiful. Inspiring stuff. :D

It's funny how those most allergic to structure and regulation seem to gravitate to exactly the "wild" places that have the most of both (Paradise, MSH, the Enchantments). Thickness in...
Amazing. My brother lives in Phoenix and I don't climb. Wanna trade?
You did the weekend right!
AWESOME. Excellent TR and photos.
Great day, and we appreciated the skin track immensely :). We were the two guys that caught up to your group then stopped below the ridge and did three sweet laps. The larger open areas has an easily...
Our descent was actually very smooth sailing. Only side step on the other side of the creek required any side-stepping. Cool area.

We didn't see any other skiers there on Saturday, but that could have been the lack visibility :). We didn't pick up a clear skin track until we got SW of the lake, but from there it was a g...
Crust breaking just sucks for skiing. Pete: Bottom line it for us, if you will: Was it good skiing or meh? There are lots of conflicting reports fromt he area. If anyone is concerned about herding, th...
Thanks!
Thanks for the report. Would you mind clarifying a bit? You say you wish you had crampons, but then got face shots. Was it only crunchy in the lowest trees? Was it because the new snow was really low...
Due north from the peak definitely has many cliff bands, but also some amazing looking couloirs and routes that look relatively doable in stable conditions. Did you ski down to Valhalla???
After that much work, I had to go back again today to enjoy the team's handiwork. The skiing was just as good.
author=mtngirl link=topic=25321.msg107099#msg107099 date=1342035376]Thanks, Bruce! Can't wait to check them out!Don't do it. You'll never have spending money again :)
Awesome! Saw your uptrack from the Russell on Saturday.
