Nice meeting you on the trail on Tuesday. The south facing slopes skied pretty well considering how sunny they were.Sidnie signing Hurricane Hill Bowl
Strong work. Looks like you climbed from Mazama Ridge? Any holes opening up on the lower Glacier?
Nothing like Olympic Corn. Good timing. Great route.
uh, Jason, your photography is getting scary good.
Is that the power assisted bike that passed us on the obstruction pt. rd a few years back?
Thanks for the report. Glad everything turned out well. This late, deep snowpack needs to settle down.
We've got to stop pounding Crystal and join you in the Olys. Good work. Solo?
Glad to hear the snowpack was cooperating with your plans. looks like a beautiful day in the backyard. Did the strong winds on sunday affect the area? Hope to get up there next week...
Nice to meet up with you and Nick and share the pit work. The bond to the MLK crust was strong on our NW aspect. Hopefully the strength of the bond of all the new snow to the Feb 7 crust will stre...
Nice find. Maybe it will snow again before all the snow melts.
Mack,Nice Job. Nice to know you are comming down off your pedestal of rock to join us old farts wallowing in the snow.
Great trip and report, Gary. Rare ski tracks on that mountain.
A new version of mixed climbing, Mack. Nice work. We were dodging wet slides on the Flett.
Nice timing. We'll have to join the throngs this weekend. Don't forget to look back and check on your dad every once and awhile, Stewart. You've got the sharp en...
Nice video, Freebird. Which aspects of the lookout did you ski? We're hoping the northwest slopes are still in good shape for this weekend.

Nice report, Lisa.
We were some of the early birds also, leaving the parking lot at 7:30 and I have to say that the skiing from Muir to Anvil and skiers left to Pebble creek was some of the fastest, most exquisite, shi...
Way to go. Glad someone finally skied that. I've been sitting out in the Straits staring at it for the past two weeks.
That is a really nice line. Love to ski it in powder someday but it rides well in spring corn also.
Yikes. Glad Jan's OK.
Nice trip. Did you happen to check the bond to that crust?
Nice pictures. I'm curious about the first picture. What direction are we looking? Looking S. would be the Baileys/ Olympus, looking east would be the Needles/Greywolf, looking...
author=trees4me link=topic=15808.msg66153#msg66153 date=1267729791]That's great. We'll definitely have all the normal spring touring gear, but if I can fit everything into my small pack the...
We didn't need any technical gear except for a rope which the quides provided. On some sections of skin track ski crampons might come in handy otherwise just skins and boots. If its s...
Nice. We had similar conditions in the chute in early Feb. Slid from the west shoulder while we were at Pebble creek on the ascent but the slide path skied well and the east side was stable.
Good job staying safe and a nice report.
Did you see any signs of the instability NWAC has been talking about? Especially on north facing slopes in trees where there was lots of surface hoar over the past few weeks.
Nice report and pics.
Nice trip. This is a rare year for access in the eastern Olympics. Good time to get with it.
