Question about the post-season at Crystal

Sorry about the stupid noob question, but I'm relatively new to the Seattle area.

Now that the lifts have stopped spinning at Crystal, is it fair game to go there and ski with dogs and such?

Hyak is a good place to hike with dogs..... The area is closed as of last week. FYI

Yes... however, during the month of May, there may be some control of the area for elk calving. I haven't seen it, but it is in the regs. If your dog had a run-in with elk it would not be cool on several different levels.

People who visit Crystal after ski season are cool and responsible (except for the few snowmobilers). Crystal keeps the restroom open in the lower lodge. So treat the area with respect.

Seems I've heard something about a kegger that happens up at Crystal after the season ends  ... anyone know anything about that this year??

Good question JPH, I was about to ask the same.
Think I'll go skinning and ski groomers tomorrow Wed 16th with the husky, anybody want to come and carpool, please PM me.

JPH...dogs, kegs, blowup dolls are all good.  Bilers no good, unless for lift maintainence.

Is it really that time again for "Party In Your Mouth" and the Mountain Margarita?

Said party usually happens on the same weekend that a special someone on this site has a birthday on.

I remember a time when certain folks use to ride the lifts the weekend before closing to hide goodies in the snow for this event.
