I don't think it was me you met. I started up at 4pm. I saw 3 other skiers but no one with a dog.
Hyak was crowded but definitely fun this weekend.On Saturday a friend followed the upper crossover trail from Silver Fir to Hyak. He encountered a lone snowshoer on his way to Hyak Lake who was trappe...

Nice day on the silver slopes. Afternoon start. Lots of cars parked along the road. There was a mountaineers post hole parade practicing walking roped up but they weren't too obtrusive. Skiing t...
We started up around 5pm. Good timing for us as we missed the mountaineers parade.
Sorry I didn't check out road 9070. But I see from another post you might be headed that way. Please report back with your findings if you go.
I took a little adventure ski starting from Silver Fir to check things out. I started from the nordic trails Silver Streak to Grand Junction to White Rabbit, and then I tried to ski the upper cr...

It was definitely a beautiful spring day!Nice to meet you Silas.
I fail to see how Ruby Mountain is a secret. It exists on topographic maps and satellite images. It is visible from nearby locations and is accessible as a day trip from a major road...
Marcus, it's a fun ski. Hopefully you'll try again in better conditions.Here's a video of when Tim and I skied this area a couple of years ago.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edBf7...
It is now time to use the road, not the meadow to access Silver!Drive as far as you can past the PCT taking a left at the Y in the road. Stay on the road until it ends (there is a fire pit here when...
I was in Bend that weekend, my husband was running the Cascade Lakes Relay.I should have brought my skis instead of shopping and floating the river.Looks like you had a good ski.
Another good but quiet day on Silver Peak. The visibility was very low today. The snow was really nice. Skinning up we saw evidence of a recent slide and rockfall.
What an amazing day to be in the mountains skiing. It was nice to meet all the folks enjoying the mountain. I met a couple of concerned hikers at the trailhead. "Is this the trailhead for Silve...
Nice work! It's good to get them started young. ;) Hopefully Emma will share your passion when she grows up.
