The social engineers running our city, county and state don't want to fix bridges and fund anything that supports SOV on the roads. It's in their interest to let this infrastructure rot in place while they fund their own agenda.

I went last weekend but only got as far as Winnie's slide (where we camped). Bad weather rolled in and we opted to bag out instead of a long summit-day in whiteout conditions. Trail is snow-free until just below Lake Ann. The chimneys themselves are 95% snow-free, and all snow can be avoided. Above the chimneys is a nice snow-bench for camping; also there are tent platforms up on the rocks below Winnie's slide. Enjoy!

at least bring something decent... a higher end blended or a low-end single malt...

Excellent! I've been enjoying alexander grappa di cabernet... a good after-dinner digestif for full meals... and just as much an "acquired taste" as whisky, I'd say.

Arbeit macht Frei

There's always more work to do, and if upper management short-shrift on staff, always way too much work for existing personnel. Par for the course, but you don't have to play along. It's like that in many technical jobs - less so these days, because there's only so much a person can take of that.

older than what?

Spray is all about speculation!
