No, Ron, I don't think that needs any clarification. I kinda like it the way it is! It was a fun group up there that day. I was surprised how many turned out mid week; given our weather recently,...
Thanks for the pictures and the post, Jibber, and the ride! Fun day.
Hey Keith. That was me and my son out there. Your yodeling was awesome! It came out of no where and capped off the day. We were on our way over to Peak 6567 and it skied really well on the North side;...
Nice report Scott. It was a great fun skiing with you. author=telemack link=topic=16331.msg68204#msg68204 date=1270920500]Where are the pix of the hats?Sorry, no pics. You just had to be there to beli...
Learned from the pro!
Great trip report and pics, Chris. Very fun day. I was back down there today and the top two inches had turned into a nasty crust, although bluebird and warm. Can't complain. We scored yesterday....
Thanks for the report Mike. Our group has been wondering how the Tatoosh is filling in. We saw your skin track or a snow shoe track up there and were wondering if it was a crown line. Good to know it...
Thanks for the trip report Randy. Way to go flexing with the changing conditions/human factors and generating interest for a group that's already good sized.
Thanks for the report Jibber. Definitely a good time had by all. I think we poached your Saturday lines, Robie. Thanks for the heads up-you're always welcome!
Nice report Amar. You nailed it with the conditions, elevations, and landmarks. While we were sitting up at the saddle we watched/heard four or five chunks break off the Ingraham icefall and come cras...
It was indeed a great ski down to the bridge. Considering the hard pack on Muir and ice on Pan face, I was pleasantly surprised. The glacier seemed pretty well filled in, the corn was great. It got a...
Lookin good Brenda. You guys are heroes stomping it out all the way up there. Thanks for the report.
Great trip report Stugie and fabulous pics. It was a really fun day and we thoroughly enjoyed meeting up with you guys!
Wow! That looks great. Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for the great report Jibber. It was an interesting snowpack! You're right about the skiing, but I'm glad I got the experience of that kind of snow and conditions in fairly safe terrai...
It was truly good to have you back, Jeanette. You are a real trooper. No sun, but your sunny smile lit up the hill and it was good to see you enjoying yourself again. Thanks, Ron, for a fun tour, as a...
Navigation, would definitely be easier if the trail were exposed as we got lost on the way out. We got a late start and camped at about 4000' the first night, and then skinned up to about 6000...
Nice report Mike. We were up there last year over Memorial Day weekend and the snow started at 4000'. It snowed hard and the wind blew for a few hours the first evenng, enough to lay down an inch...
Thanks for the great TR Zap and to all for great company. It was quite a congenial group with smiles even brighter than an intense sun. Great tour planning, Mad Dog, and guiding/pictures Ron. I think...
Thanks for the report Marco and to Ron and Jeanette for trip planning and touring guide. Weather is never a problem with Garfunkel and you are right about the support from the community. Next we get J...
VERY nice trip report Zap, and the ski pole repair shot was magical! It was indeed a magical day and I hope Monday was equal. Thanks again to Jeanette and Garfunkel for route planning and execution. G...
Thanks for the great report Zap and the fun trip. I think we chose wisely. The freshies on Friday that turned to slurpee on Saturday were pretty well settled on Sunday. Fun in the sun!!
Thanks for the report Chris. Not to worry, we sent the cyclists out on a SAR for you! What a great area and ingenious approach-thanks Ron! But I think his sidekick was Garfunkel, not Magellan.
Nice report, Ron, with the usual astute observations on weather and snow conditions. Great tour, great pics, great company. Thanks!
Great trip and great report Ron. You led us a merry chase and I thoroughly enjoyed the adveture. ;DI think the good snow started again about 3900'. That two inch crust between the top and 3...
Thanks for the great post, pics, and super fine company. Many thanks also to the Rangers and Brenda's plugs!
Thanks for the great trip and great pics JW and Jen and Congrats! Even the cornices held and only a tad of sluffing on your epic shot out of the top chute! See you next time.
Great photos Jeanette and Ron. What a gorgeous snow day-better than bluebird! Thanks again.
Well, Joe, I got caught this week and had to figure this TR stuff out! So now I can add that you left out those spectacular cornice jumps! Thanks for showing us how it's done!
