Where to find the Snow??

So, I am on the path to my first 12 pack (9 down, 3 to go) and I need to get August taken care of this weekend. It is looking like muir/paradise may be the best bet. Any other options? Anyone been out Ptarmigan Ridge area recently?

Wow. 9 brews down by 10:00 AM.<br>I like that in a woman.<br>Are you at work?<br>(I guess I probably shouldn't count on a reply today, eh?<br> You might have a case down by now. )

Funny Ron! That made me laugh

I figure if the bars can open at 6am so can i <br>

Thanks, Jeff. <br>I'm usually the only one that thinks I'm funny. I usually hear some comment about a "warped sense of humor" or the like. <br><br>

High Five, Adrianne!. Great answer.<br>Sorry for the thread drift. I just sent you an email regarding another option. Keep up the streak. May the Force be with you <br>

I can't really recommend Ptarmigan Ridge, I tried it last Saturday and got only really low quality runs out of it. The Coleman Pinnacle remnants are almost all bare ice, and other remnants such as around 14-goat are even worse. I tried the very first part of the Sholes Glacier, and that was also awfully icy with a lot of terrain issues such as crevasses, very icy sidehills and rock bands.<br>See a trip report I wrote up for NWHikers. The piece of the Sholes I skied in pix 4. It was actually a very nice hike but calling it a ski trip woulda been an oversell.
