... well, at least above 8k. Next weekend could be a little different than the past 4 months:

NICE!!!

Montana this morning...

This is generally considered to be the best Mt. Rainier Forecast   calling for snow as low as Paradise on Wednesday but then rising considerably; btw it snowed as low as Paradise last night but not much.

Adams picked up snow down to ~treeline Saturday night, was mostly gone by this evening....

Looks like late last week was just a teaser.

"Across the higher elevations of north-central Washington, southwest Montana, and central Idaho, measurable snowfall is expected across higher elevations, including portions of the Cascades and Anaconda ranges."

The forecast Andrew posted above shows relatively high snow levels early this week, rapidly dropping to below Paradise by Friday. The NWS point forecast for Camp Muir shows substantial new snow coming down this week and subsiding by the weekend. I don't want to jinx it, but I think it's time for a fresh coat of wax...
