Drove to within 3/4 mile of summer trailhead. Booted on firm snow until close to Ingalls pass, skinned up Headlight Basin. Really impressive view from the summit -- amazingly clear day -- not clouds or haze -- Adams, St Helens, Rainier, Glacier and Baker all clearly visible. Skiied the SE bowl, more corn meal mush than corn, with some slow shallow wet slides kicked off.

Back at the trailhead, many more cars and lots of parties heading for Stuart.

Nice Randy -- great views up there for sure. We were over in the Esmeralda area. Fortune looked like it was in great shape.
I thought I saw some tracks on some of the N coluoirs on Esmerelda.
