Some photos from the summit team are here. The Hogsback has deviated significantly to the west since last year, so we opted to take the old route up the Mazama chute. Just below the bergsc...
Well, bugger all. Looks like a beautiful day out, ski delamination notwithstanding. I'll be keeping my eyes on the weather and looking to get out as soon as I'm not wearing the p...
It was good to see you out there on Sunday! I only wish I'd had skis with me...When we left the parking lot at about 10:20, that deer was still there.
I always just yelled, "Grande cocoa!!!", but that's just me.
Brett and Dave: it was great meeting you guys!Jessica, Chis, & Kelvin: it was great skiing with you again -- it's been too long.We had a great time up at Alpental on 6/6/06. I did my be...
Curses! What a beautiful day to be stuck in the office! I think further dawn patrolling will be required once I'm not on-call.
Here's a quick rundown of the Illumination Rock tour.Tuesday morning was clear and beautiful; Mt. Hood looked tempting, but Daniel & I initially decided to descend with the rest of the crew...

A foot of fresh powder over 3" of solid base made for surprisingly good skiing on what would normally be the groomed runs. We ran into Mark@/mjt (is that correct?) and his friend Daniel. We had a...
We made a good choice. I was a bit sketched up there by the time we turned around. Damn.
What a morning! Beautiful terrain, fresh snow! Only wish I didn't spend so much time with my face buried in it :)Thanks for putting up with a novice like me!Like I figured, I got bac...
Cass: what in the Jim-hell were you thinkin'?it looked like nice snow. ;)-kam We are very sick. The snow was ever so fluffy, but it was a cruel ruse.I can't wait to go back.

My brother and I went up as well. We hiked up to a little above Panorama Point, then skinned up to the cloud ceiling, between 7500 and 7600 feet. The clouds descended on us as we removed o...
