WA Cascades West Slopes South (Mt Rainier)

Lotsa tracks out there for the dearth of posts. Maybe folks hiding their 'secret' stashes? Blue sky, lite wind, 4-6" freshies all day (if you knew where to find it.). :)
NWAC employees were seen heading up for slope evaluations. We dug a pit at 5600' on a SE facing slope at noon and found 30" of increasingly heavier powder atop 24" wet sugar under the windless blue skies. No crust layers! (at that particular spot on that particular slope)

This may explain some of the tracks you saw... Quite a few non-TAYers up there sometimes too.
What an unrewarding job they have ;). (Thanks guys!)
