Strong work!
Strong work you'all!
Thanks for the chunk of history. Very interesting. And that is a LOT of ice gone down the white river. :(
Thanks for posting
Nice!
Nice work!
No smiling!!! Skiing is serious business. 😑
Traveling the japan trains with skis and backpacks is more of a crux than most folks realize.
We went up smithbrook road sunday. Same stuff. 4-6" of light fluff on hard ice crust. I', sure today would have been very different after 12" of new.
Upper trailhead off of road 27. Some snow on the short access road off of the wye. No snow on road 27 (which is paved). I bet a lot of trail heads are accessible. The townsend trail was pa...
"Ski quality: Poor"Yes, it was a pretty day, but I think you are being too kind regarding the suitability of the current "snowpack" for the fickle activity of strapping barrel stav...
Roman Wall was a great ski Saturday even at 2PM. https://www.flickr.com/photos/skioften/34721771273/in/album-72157685398594986/

So back to the 7:07 time. (!) What is the vertical total, since you drop down to the start of liberty ridge? d

Nice!Your weight is always on the cutting edge
Hummm.....not sure we were at the same place. Got there about 9. unclear during most of the day if we were engaging in a water sport or a snow sport. But a excellent workout. The gym has nothing to re...

We had a great time there in late June 2 years ago. 26 hours plane to plane of almost continuous hiking. Found a 130 year bakery with awesome sandwiches. Saw some old ski tracks up high on some snow f...
Nice. Much better than our week of dust on breakable and un-breakable crust at wallowa yurts with 50 mph winds
I think it is worthy to make a point about the discussion, and not the avalanche itself.You stated:">>>>>>Lastly, in general, there doesn’t seem to be a community that allows fo...
Suze is jealous.....
So that was you guys who left the highway right before us on sunday AM. We tried lichtenwasser, got cliffed out going up the main ridge to the lake, so turned and did some laps up the 5300' ridge...
We were worried about that likely loading and choose to stay on the bullion basin side of the gap and ski the more wind facing face and rib above the lake. We dug a pit and did some low exposure runs...
Thanks for the info. I was wondering how far up that road you could go now. Although I was thinking of a mellower two day trip.
It was nice out there. Bummer to come back to the big city. Steve
Who are you going to trust? TAY or the Forest Service?
7/4/11. It was nice up there today. Thanks for the advice to take tennies
Charlie, It is, however, a pretty cool photo. What camera are you lugging with you on your laps up Muir?
