Which side did you come up?  We came up from Rainy Pass and didn't see anyone all day until we were about to start down from the Pass.

Super excellent skiing that day.
Hope Radka doesn't mind sharing her ski-porn pics here. Mine are here.
you are..  the most interesting skier in the world
The third to last pic of the skier next the larch tree is awesome!
Looks like you spotted a glacier ninja setting speed records. Very groovy.
Than sounds like truly civilized skiing! 
You lucky Devils what a day you had, beutiful pictures. Thanks
Wow  those meters fooled me as well - but way too long of a drive.  Best ski pics all year from PNW.
As far as I know, it's not possible to post photos to TAY from my iPhone. Can one of my Facebook friends who has time, please grab a photo or two and post here for Jamie?  Thanks.
Not sure about "Flying Kittens", but yes skiing was sickly good.  Here is Ms. photographer:





Faint ski tracks below the Blue Lk col:

wow, looks great!  anyone have an explanation why the washington pass telemetry did not/does not show this amount of new snow? what aspects did you find a foot+ of new on? could that have been lingering soft snow with a couple inches of fresh on top?
Oh it was so nice! I started singing halleluiah!!
Looks like you timed it right!
Thanks for the report and photos, and way to time it right.  We camped/skied up there in early June last year - those cornices along Cairn Basin looking very similar then.
Nice work and thanks for the report! 
Well done! Really like the google earth shots mixed in. Shared the truck ride back to blue lake th with you guys
Great vid!  Thanks for sharing.
Silas, I love that you are getting the goods in Italy, and I'm truly green with envy, but could you include some great pictures to really make me suffer?
Lovely vid, I enjoyed the hell out of it.
Great pic of Silverton down in the distance in the 2cnd or so photo. 

I have a customer in Durango and always look forward to driving the million dollar hwy south out of Ouray thru Silverton from CB, CO.   What a beautiful area!

Very stable conditions for sure this spring.

Thx for posting. Tony
Italy makes happy. Go Silas, go.
I am thankful for your update, thanks mate!

Way to rub rub our noses in it. GPNF is not doing a good job at updating the road conditions this year. In reality I was letting you all know that roads are passable.


Just sayin, never know unless you go.  Probably been the best part about this crappy winter, no problem accessing Adams without a snomo.  Surprise lakes snotel provides a pretty good idea...
It was a great weekend. Also, the sun coming out Saturday afternoon was pretty cool after a socked in, snowy morning.
No big deal river59, I'm just always psyched for more information/stoke-enhancing pictures.
awesome!  might have to rush down there before it warms back up.  nice mtn twin split too.

Kam - Unfortunately my nice camera decided to quit working last month. I dont have any pictures to share other than one I took with a potato from below the a...
Thanks Jamie! Hopefully I'll see you out there!
Yes!  Let's go discover some secret stashes  ;D

I just rolled in from a desert trip so I'm looking for snow... Rolfing too!
Thanks for sharing a great trip; I also really enjoyed your video.
Vince, good to see you out and about, nice pic, thanks.  I think it's about time to hit the pass, looks like folks are getting great turns!
I went to the map, to find where you were, fantastic looking turns, thanks for the great photos!
Thanks for the great photos, flat light can sure take the fun out of great snow!
We did not bike, it was snowing like crazy, but we were hoping we could.  I think it just made it all the more important to get back to ski and bike.  We found a great BLM camp on the way home. 

Dan this winter has been all about Rolfing, we went for a great ski today, in Clara lake basin and there was plenty of full contact Rolfing on the way out!!!

Hope you are getting some turns, it might be time to "discover" some new routes at Washington Pass!!!
Cool.

I like whoops too.
Now I'm real jealous.  My kind of an adventure.  Ice tools, alpine, careful interaction with the terrain and conditions... aerobic long day.

Thanks for posting!  and I agree about the vid.  Very nice to see something with great character.
"Now I know why this peak is called Cutthroat! Because if you tell anybody how good the skiing is there, you will be dead "

;D  ;D  ;D

I'm still jumpy... worried that someone might cut my throat after my last TR in this area!

HWY 20... I'm coming.
Oh boy oh boy oh boy!  Can't wait to get up there.
Rolfing!

I'm going to use it now.  Thoroughly and well coined.
Nice one, Ryan! That sounds like a full day ...
Adams has been in since November.
Glad you enjoyed the cheesy bacon fries Jamie! Did you Mtn bike in Susanville?
Anytime Amar. Ditto to you too, Hedo and zbo. Getting kind of lonely down in Yakistan. Give ourselves a couple of nights we could even search out that hotel Chapin place. I hear it's got great views
Sounds like a great trip.  Glad you are back in town!
