I don't know but I have that same question about Silver Peak. The chute is cool on Ellinor but I kind of like the summer trail route for a more wide open shred. Respectively we may ju...
I've done Tinkham when there's no snow from the south side of Mirror Lake up the ridge to the top. Is that the route you skied, or where did you ascend and descend I'm curious to...
Great video cityhick! That is hilarious he can ski on that. I'm gonna show a few people that for sure. 8)
Great photos! Your buddy Chip sure is a hair little guy. Next time get pics of him carving some turns! ::)
Thanks for the great narrative, pics and data. I was thinking of doing the Van Trump this weekend. How bad is the spot with bridge gone? Is there so much water that a crossing really...
It was my pleasure to shovel the road and move the logs. Thanks for posting a photo of the now clear route through the debris. It gives me a visual aid to go with the story I told my wife...
Nice well described TR JD. We are very lucky to live in this area I agree, especially with this years snow pack we can continue to enjoy. I agree the 'no uphill traffic' sign sho...
Thanks for posting those great pics DB. You have a nice view from your place! Reminds me of when I had my wife watch me ski the chute through a telescope on the deck of my in laws cabin at...
Cheers to you guys for heading up on Ellinor. I'm planning to ski it when more of the road melts out. I've skied the 'chute' a couple times, but the last few times I've been hitting the op...
We are talking about Alpental, so by definition people should assume there's no completely safe-from-avy-route. That has got to be the safest way though. What do people think of avy danger up th...
Wow, you guys went to the top even with Sunday's weather!? I broke the skin track in and as you saw stopped at top of chair 1. I left the lot around 6:30 in a driving rain. (I knew it was going...
Nice work; that's a great little peak. How far up the road could you drive? Funny that I just sold my place at Cushman. We've skied Ellinor lots o times, sometimes the 'chute' but usually...
Way to go for it! I did it the day before you did and mine also was a solo mission. Boy oh boy I agree a lot of work went in for the skiing that was had! I can't complain, I needed to work out. Yeah,...
Is Shastina a nick name for Shasta? I've done Shasta a couple times skiing down the main Av. Gulch route back to bunny flats. Is Shastina a false summit? Seems like there's a small false summit on the...
Hey, speak of the devil, I layed the tracks down the nisqually chute. If I had my camera I'd post a TR to show it off. It was fun seeing my glowing white tracks in the dirty snow from even the Nisq br...
Well done marcr! I end up going solo sometimes. I always see if any pals can go, but if they can't, I ain't sitting on the couch all day! Muir is a good place for this. Many of us have the route...
2:45 is flying. You deserve a cheeseburger and a beer! I've done it in 3 hrs but I feel like crap, so I intentionally slow it up to 3:30 about. I hit Muir Sunday 6-12 & agree the upper...
Road Cut, nA compilation of B side type songs, often recorded live, used to entertain traveling motorists. :DReally though, temps are nice and cool today! My pal wants to do Muir or Inter G tomo...
Always good to hear a fellow snow lover had a successful outing. I was up there 5-27 & 5-29, did Muir 5-30. I parked at the pass on south side of road & have been touring south, around t...
Great TR and conditions update! I actually mt biked up the Esmeralda Basin trail on 5-16; fun trail that does allow bikes. I didn't have enough time to do what you guys did. Wasn't much snow near the...
The debate over which method to the madness (ski or snowboard) to use and why is always interesting. I often tour with boarders. Sometimes I have to wait a few for them to finish ascent, but when we h...
Informative report, thank you very much! I was there a few days before your outing and am considering it for tomorrow. The slide pic is a good reminder of the only thing I'm worried about; those slopp...
I was up there with the e-dog on the 27th also but in the evening. Yes, getting to the start of skinnable snow is a challenge. Ascending we followed the tree line up off the PCT, not enough snow...
