Yes!  That photo of Reed looking at the camera is killing me, love it, reminds me of LeBron when he went off against the Bobcats and locked eyes with Jordan during an emphatic dunk.  Nah mean?

 

Somebody please forward Drew's images to the flat earthers, that outta fix 'em.

Hi Sky, I think that's the same line. Jason's picture is very similar to the views I had mid-slope.

What a blast! Here are some more photos.

Sounds like a very fun day!  

I don't know how your line would be same as or different from Cyril and the Hummels.  It seems to have a party of three nature to its schmoozing.

Never had a MOD pizza.  

Fantastic. Strong work fellas!

Thanks mike for the great report, trying to put in a few pictures;

A sinuous path!

 

A little wet meadow training

 

Your TR and photos were great. Your photos also "show" the comments on your trip report.๐Ÿ˜€

Still good on Wed!

Radical, thx for the update and sweet snow blades

Just saving my spot in this historic thread.

Wow. This looks so great. There are so many great nuggets of late spring/summer turns to be had if someone is willing to earn them. 

Fun looking trip! I want a Sauk Squad T-Shirt.  

Holy smokes that's impressive! Way to get 'er, and in good conditions no less.  Congrats!

Thx for the report, had a blast on the Squak yesterday. Great skiing for any time of the year, let alone July! 

Cool report and love your food choices!  I've not been in this area but will have to check it out. Thanks for posting!

Sick!  Not super familiar with this one but now you got me thinking, too!  Congrats and thanks for sharing!

Nice patch!  But no pond skimming? ๐Ÿ˜€

Excellent report!  Love the pics, the skiing, the story.  Booo to the parking situation - I guess it just rewards the creativity of fellers like yourselves!

Yes, sir. Check out those sick blades.

@mikerolfs and @jtack, you always get the prize for getting the most unique trips... @kamtron's "legendary patch skiers strike again" pretty much sums it up, haha. Love the story and the flower pix.

@Hefta-Gaub, one can add as many photos as they wish by using the image icon in the editor (in which case you simply enter a URL of the image, which is already hosted elsewhere, e.g. on Google Photos, OneDrive, i...

Sherman Peak is a scenic summit.  Is that Reed P?  OMG HI2U buddy!

 

(Edit SHEMAN to Sherman that was unintentional)

1) This is epic! Thanks for sharing! I love the long walks for "gimmicky" skiing.

2) How did you get to add so many photos? I thought there was a 10 photo limit. Btw - they are great!

Nice update!

Sherman Pk looks like a worthy destination on it's own!

Looks like fun. You all are strong to carry your gear in and out of there, even if the trail's "good".

Legendary patch skiers strike again

I've seen overflow parking at that  trailhead even  some years ago in summer, though not running  more  than a few hundred yards down  the road. Between the  increase in the  region's population,  the  increase in the  percent of people who get out  hiking, the impact  of COVID on outdoor recreation (i.e. incenting people to do stuff outside because it's good for your health and also it's not a scary indoor public space) and the ampl...

Mike , your TR and photos of the terrain plus the flowers was GREAT.  It was good that you did the video of the ride from the parking "lot" to the "end" of the parking places. I think the "end" continued to grow after you left. On this trip, Thursday night was good and Saturday was a mess. ๐Ÿ˜‰

The Teannaway provides! Nice one guys!!

Hedonaut, Thanks!

Here's the best I've got. Definitely some plums out there. Maybe a downclimb/rappel?

Strong work day-tripping from the closed road!  As others said, good timing and quite the score.

Sent you a message inquiring re: more pics of the Mowich-Ptarmigan zone, if you are willing to share.

Thanks for the beta!

Heading tomorrow with my son. We plan to have a camp above treeline and try the summit Saturday.

Thanks for tha beta. You're on a roll!

A timely report! My wife and a crew are headed that way soon. Thanks

Excellent. Solid score. 

Zap, Yep thought of folks who do the Wonderland without sleep. lots of stumps on that one. 

 

skykilo, I'm sure it's a whole different game being the 1st. The baking instructions from your TR were spot on. So crazy the stuff you guys skied on ice.

I see them now! Cool trip to an area I don't know

Rad!  Between this and other accounts of skiing it with powder I feel like a goofball.  Might have to ski it again one of these years with good conditions.  Posted while escaping a heat wave with two munchkins in a grove of aspens at 10,000 ft.

Yowza! Way to get after it. A day to remember.

A BIG day with your thoughts and photos.

"Several Klondike-esqu prospectors with gold pans appeared in the ditch along the road and then transformed into stumps." Yes, I had a few "bears along the road" that transformed into stumps. ๐Ÿ˜‰

This is super rad. Looks like you SCORED.

Likewise, Kam!

Dont forget those pocket glaciers north of 3rd burrough and 2nd Burrough. We ran into Art Freeman there on sunday,

 

The suncups are growing noticeably day-to-day. Skiing goes until ~10 feet before the 4th Crossing trailhead.

Nice to meet you up there finally, Andy!

Excellent beta, thank you!

Thanks for the TR, but your pictures aren't showing up for me.

View from the Stevens-VanTrump-Sluiskin Monument today.

Today 

Thanks for the photo update - looks surprisingly smooth for July!

Were you able to drive to 4th Crossing?

Bravo! AR, off the couch, Phinneyโ€™s hardest charging family man :)
