I've done that traverse! And it's was gloriously beautiful and full of blueberries....in September. Obviously getting around Mamie Peak will be the crux of your mission. P...
very cool photos! Pretty sure Scurlock has taken photos of a very similar release zone in years past. Fumarole induced weakness?
Curious about your "fort" comment. As in someone built a snowfort and didn't want you skiing through it? Or someone placed an imaginary fort in their immediate vicinity and...
That's freaking HUGE! Is the general assumption that this is still the weak layer from mid-February? Seems sort of unprecedented in my memory.
Maybe not touring during the first significant warm up of the year is a good place to draw the line. I'm sort of surprised at all the TRs from people that went out during what was a very s...
Though I agree completely with your sentiments, I simply can't help myself.
So did it feel 57 degrees out?! Â Wish I understood how and when powder can last in these types of conditions. I would have figured everything had turned to ice/afternoon slip. There must be som...
I saw a different facebook post on this....they gunned it right into the already wide open crevasse because they couldn't see it and it hadn't been there earlier in the season. Hit the...

Oh yay! The annual "SEATTLE SKINTRACKERS $&@#%!&@& URGGH GLAGG! dRRRR...."
I was out Wednesday night under the moon and found conditions thoroughly confusing and generally bad. Winds had clearly been out of the NE (side note the NWAC weather vane on Pan Dome does not...
If you can't handle other people being around the LAST place you should be skiing is Bagely Lakes Basin. And getting bent about turns over a skin track is ridiculous. $&@# that g...
Amazing photos!
Was good to go during the brief weather break on Wednesday. Trace at the base of the Hogsback, knee deep at the top and much deeper on the glacier. All the little cracks in the typical zo...

ADVENTURE!
Those holes are always there or at least will be from now on with what feels like several years of rapid climate change. It's shocking how increasingly broken up the entire permanent icefie...
I only see one poster name calling here which is quite possibly the definition of childish......
I've noticed significant changes in the Coleman headwall area over the last several years. That upper search area definitely seems to be falling apart in a hurry. The final steep bit on the head...
You are so fortunate (and also highly skilled) to have experienced such spectacular conditions. I dream of skiing the Park in conditions like that. Much jealousy.......
Yes a cornice. Approx 10' long by 4' wide. Figure a very approximate 60 cubic feet at 16 lb per cubic foot. Fun stuff.
It's the Internet. People will be caustic. The NWAC has to paint with a broad brush. And frequently theory as much as observation seems to drive their forecasts. Agreed that stability in the...
Index was amazing on Saturday. T-shirts and bone dry rock! :DOn a more somber note there was serious (but not fatal) accident on the north side of Baker Saturday near the Hogsback. A...
You are a badass. Nice work. Some great looking turns.

Extra gnar points for the complete lack of the ubiquitous Whippets. Amazing steeps there on the headwall and beyond.
bad ass
