Hey I saw another pic from last week there was quite a bit of snow on the N to NE slopes...is that still true? Have pictures? Thanks.

Nice John. Hopefully I can tag along to another trip East this winter. Or early season NF of Hood?

I don't think Enumclaw will ever live that down. I know it's the only thing Kevino thinks about when he drives through there. I like'em nice and furry and horns to grab a hold of. 8D

No, White Pass had a problem with people skiing and getting lost out of bounds. Very different to what this bill is addressing.

Nice. Any pictures of the chute's current condition? I work for the next 8 days but would like to get out there next week.

Very nice. I love that area. If you wait until sept time you won't have any bugs.

My most current guess based on the weather and my last trip up there a week or two ago...snow across the source lake lookout. clear up to great scott bowl, which will be mostly covered in snow. There was bergschrund that required stepping onto the ledges about 10 ft away from the actual pass itself because the actual pineapple pass had a snow bridge that was overhanging and thin. Hopefully that paints a good picture for you.

I was when I attended school there. Graduated in '09. I'll send you a pm

Dave I'm not sure you have enough stickers on your helmet. I signed up for 48 hours of OT, see you at work!

Thanks again Jon(and everyone else behind the scenes) for doing this. Very cool to see such an assortment of great photos. With that being said, I am officially boycotting ski/snowboard section since my photo wasn't nominated but a picture of a whiteout was.

You running for the school?

Still skiing in places in the alpental valley. But then again I live there so its worthwhile to me! I'll third the suggestion of pictures from MT.

Only if you include some of that grease and dirt off of your hands.

Want to climb the NR of baker then ski the coleman headwall?

WOW Alex... I said to you that I will send you back the rope because there is 2 core shot in it and because it's 52 meters and not 60 meters like stated. You don't say that? Also there is 2 major soft spots in the rope so it is good for retirement! But I will not pay a dime because YOU ripped me off. So, you can send me an UPS box with their prepaid service and I will put the rope inside. You will be able to put this rope in the garbage after, because it is the only place where this rope have to go. Maybe some people can do carpet with it or pull out trees but definitely not climbing. And please don't try to sell your crap to climbers and after claiming your got ripped off or that people are dishonest!!! You sent the rope 8 or 9 days after you get supposed to give me a shipping quote and I was in vacation at that time so I waited to get the rope to pay since you sent it without payment. Now please stop making me loosing my time by asking pictures and lot of question via email I am definitely frustrated and insulted by your attitude and from the crap I received from you! I will send your rope back but not at my charge! That honest and fair and you do not have to claim for a rip off because I offered that to you even before this post. Now you can email me if you want to resolve that instead of trying to resolve problems at large here! (Resolving = taking your rope back at your fees)

Hey Mirks, I got some prototype BD ice screws that aren't coming out until this winter...$20 a screw

This guy does, so he posted in the climbing partner section.

minx, sorry i've been slacking on my social stocking, i mean networking. but you should be more flexible with your insomnia!

buuuuuuuuuump this up. back at work. let the fun begin!

Thanks iluka, that is what I assumed as I alluded to, but didn't know for sure. While this is an interesting subject, I doubt there will ever be any money for a research project about high altitude climbers on blood thinners.

As the title states. Used to have a pair but I broke them. Anyone have a set that they are not using? Thanks.

Here is a shot I stole from John's TR from 8 mile mtn. 03/08

Not to correct you but I'm pretty sure that slope you are referring to would be considered the west face... So this was taken 01/09 from the stuart lake trail This was taken 02/08 looking down the face at my friend climbing, look generally west back down to mountaineers creek

from the pct i could see continuous snow from the end of the commonwealth basin up to the col at the base of lundin's east ridge. there was lots of snow between lundin and snoqualmie. red has little to no snow. I didn't get up to the kendal catwalk today due to rain and thunder in the distance.
