While hiking the road (NF 7601) today with family, spoke with a forest service employee in a truck who was evaluating for a possible gate opening of today/tomorrow. He suggested the road may be open to Eightmile Lake trailhead initially, and then to Stuart Lake trailhead as road conditions allow.

Seems like this could be a great ski with a normal winter/spring snowpack?

Looking for an older, cheap(ish) spring touring ski. Specifically a 174 K2 Mt Baker is a ski that would work very well. PM or email me if you have a pair you'd pass along.

Looking for a pair of MSR Lightning ascent or Evo ascent snowshoes for my father. Used is ok as long as they are 100% functional with lots of life left. Looking to spend around $100 or less. PM or email to steven (dot) ladish AT gmail if you have some you could part with. Thanks.

I had bad thoughts of popping a crampon last year while soloing Leuthold's. Glad you were able to get by without it!

I've had the pleasure of befriending Mark Smith over the last year and a half. It is an amazing story he has to tell of this climb. I'm looking forward to hearing it presented. Also it should be noted that almost every time Mark and I have a conversation I am laughing at some point. The guy is a riot.

Seems a little steep on the price as these are a discontinued model of boots...

Great climb and TR. Great pictures.

What is the date for this event?

Size on the jacket?

Jpark42 has got some for sale. I want to buy them but don't have the $$$.

I always miss the good ones! Glad you guys had a good time!

I'm interested in Shasta. I'll be down at Shasta Lake with the in-laws for the weekend and was considering a Fri night/Sat trip.
