Snowcave Practice??

Hope this isn't some of our folks:<br>www.komotv.com/stories/22249.htm
There was talk of this trip on one of the TR threads a month or so ago. Hope they're ok and just hunkered down in a snowcave.

I hadn't seen your post, Ron, and replied to jhamaker's planned trips post: "After reading the newspaper report today about the 2 missing skiers, I have a bad feeling about this trip. The origin, destination, timing, and party size correspond. The 2 missing skiers started out from Crystal on Saturday, according to the paper, which would have been right at the tail end of the big windstorm and one day before the avalanche in Cement Basin."<br><br>Let's hope for the best.

An updated story on KOMO now confirms that the missing skiers are jhamaker's party:<br><br> www.komotv.com/stories/22268.htm <br><br>Amar<br>

James and fellow skier just walked out safe ,cold and hungry. Got it from family. I knew he was tough!

That's very cool.<br>Guess it WAS nothing more than snowcave practice <br>Here's a link to the story:<br>www.komotv.com/stories/22271.htm

Trail report ought to be a doozy eh?

<br>Yeah.<br>I can't wait to see the trip report  <br>"you write it.<br>No - you better write it.<br>No, you write it.<br>You.<br>You.<br>etc")<br> ;D<br><br>All kidding aside... I'm really glad they're ok.<br>I'll bet they learned a bunch. 3 extra days. They're probably chowing down about now.<br>

CONGRATULATIONS GUYS! ;D You had us worried. Andy & Regine

It's great that they made it, and under their own power too. A trip report, and maybe they remembered to take some photos?

James Hamaker posted a quick blerb on: www.cascadeclimbers.com/threadz/showflat...ed&sb=5&o=&fpart=all .<br>He indicated that he'd post a TR later.
