Remember 2005?

No early turns to be had here. Nearly 90 in the valley

My sister lives in Anchorage (near Flattop) -- They had a foot of snow at their house last weekend. There will be snow -- but perhaps not so much at low-snow-quality pass.

2005 wasn't so bad -- at least compared to my memory of 1977 -- when Ski Acres had a grand total of one day of operation and Washington and Chinook passes never closed. Conversely in 1977 people toured to places than normally never see skiers mid-winter due to long snow covered approach roads that were drivable -- Think Mt Baker in January with no snow machines..

WA pass never closed then? That practically has me salivating.

Gary - just use a snorkel while your head is down in the sand...

The picture I posted above was enabled by an open Highway 20 and a nice May storm cycle.
