Aaron had to be back in Seattle by 1pm so it was a 3am departure from Seattle... (are we crazy??)

The sunrise was spectacular with clear skies and all the fresh snow! Enjoyed many good turns on supportable crust with some dust on top which was smooth and clean and protected our skis/us from lurking sharks. We transitioned around the Pebble Creek Trail turnoff and ascended about 1k' before we had to turn around. It seemed like there was some potential for corn!

Back to the car by 10am, saw two parties of two and one solo person. All dudes. Where were the other TAY-ladies?
