Tnt and I hit decided to hit Paradise for some turns. We encountered snow on the trail a little below 8,000ft and crossed over onto Paradise Glacier. We opted to head up to camp Muir even though we knew the skiing would not be any good. The sun cups were huge and small rocks littered our run. Paradise was better, although there are quite a few crevasses open.

We (snoslut, Josh & I) watched you guys down climb to the glacier near anvil rock.  We were the 3 snowboarders basking in the sun.  Yep,yep,yep. 8)

Yeah, we saw you resting on the side. Didn't realize you had boards with you  :)
