Spring Ski Traverse in Idhao Sawtooths?

I’m thinking a spring ski traverse in the Idaho Sawtooths would be a great trip.  I’m looking for any trip reports or suggestions on a good 5 or 6 day traverse or loop in the Sawtooth’s or White Cloud’s. 
I have a vague recollection of a magazine article (Backcountry or Couloir?)  or maybe web story of a week long Sawtooth traverse on Splitboards.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Here's a TR from a buddy of mine.  Not really a traverse, but still some good reading.

Here are a couple of more traverse oriented articles I found:

www.adventureplus.org/sawtooths.htm

I read the article, 2 winters ago in Couloir I think. Email Craig Dostie at Backcountry magazine, or a search could find it for you.

Thanks for the replies. I found the article. It was written by Eric Leidecker in Backcountry #35 which I think is from about 2 years ago. The trip was actually in the Boulder Mtns which of course are right next door to the Sawtooths.

They used skis not splitboards. Although I did find a another article in Backcountry #29 (oct 2003) about snowboarding the Sawtooths but it was a yurt trip not a traverse.

After re-reading it I think I'm looking for a mellower trip. I've been looking at maps of routes between Sawtooth Lake on the north end and Redfish Lake but no route decision made yet, I’m still looking at options.
