Anyone been up on Hood recently and have any info about conditions and/or photos? Specifically would like to know about the north/northeast face, but any info about non-SS routes would be great. Also if anyone has been up on I-Rock lately that would be cool to know about too.

dont have any info about the routes youre talking about but went up SS wed, snow from last storm had not yet consolidated, doing a bit of wading

Lame...just kidding that looked cool.

My first try with an iMovie but cannot figure out the transitions.

Looks like it was fun. Im hoping that conditions hold for tomorrow.

Hmmm....Just got back after skiing at the Timberline Lodge and it's snowing, windy and a whiteout.

Well that's not what I want to hear

Awesome, looks like you had a great climb. Keeping my fingers crossed for a few days of stable weather next weekend.

I skinned up from government camp to the top of palmer on Wednesday, and it was a perfect day for climbing. I saw a couple of people coming down from crater rock.

I think that weather window has lapsed though, and it's snowing. You know, you can always check the timberline web cam to get an up to the minute view of the current conditions.

we were up yesterday, and I just want to mention that there was moderate hoar frost at the hogsback and above, so beware after the next snowfall.

As of 02/07/10, we found the avy debris trail right in the middle of the Upper Eliot that is heavily crevassed as well around the seracs.

Snow Dome and Cooper Spur looked good with great fresh powder skiing!

Watch out for crevasses above the Snow Dome if you are heading up that way.
