Didn't think to get photos of NY Gully or other routes, unfortunately. You can get a general idea of how much snow/ice is on that wall in some of the photos here:https://imgur.com/a/lok30Ok

It was! I guess you've probably seen the NWAC report for Snoqualmie already, but there's also an interesting user-submitted obs showing slab depth:https://www.nwac.us/observations/pk/4...
Nice! maximusj and I did it in two days, the other way, July 1-2 2017. Did you end up with good skiing going N-S? S-N lets you ski 5 fall-line "runs", but has the obvious d...

Did you get a look at any of the Colchuck couloirs?

Did you get a look at the NBC? Wondering if it will be in on the 4th.
Thanks Charlie, headed up there tomorrow! Hoping to miss the 20% chance showers currently in the forecast....
Nice! Tried the White Salmon on Sunday, but ran turned around rather than skin across a 45 degree slope with cliffs/cracks below and unsupportive mush on top. Guess we should have tried th...
Silver was pretty great this morning. Routefinding in the clear cut is getting interesting.
Thanks for the report. We were originally planning to do the Forbidden Tour the same time you two did, but instead opted to wander around the Eldorado/Klawatti area. On the way in (around...

Anyone been over Sharkfin recently? Wondering what it's going to be like this weekend.

Nice! There was a similar effect seen from Stevens; I would call it the Sky River but I guess that already exists and is in the other direction....
Are you from the future? Who wins the election?Oops looks like this post doesn't say November 11 anymore....
Anyone know what the deal is with White River campground in the off-season (e.g. now)? Wondering if I can park there overnight.
Did not observe any loose or slab failure while skinning. We had a hard time identifying specific layers in the pit, although there was a noticeable density increase at around 50cm depth (total...
Photo album link fixed, I hope.
We saw some people do the first 1/2 mile or so of traverse at the base of the chutes, then boot straight up over the ridge. Not sure what that gets you; presumably you could get onto the summer...
I think almost everyone was on the winter route. There were some reasonably large cornices looming over bits of the summer route.There were patches of snow in the Cold Springs campground, but I...
