Just moved to Portland and looking to do an overnight trip this weekend 7/14. I'm not speedy with skinning/hiking but very motivated.

I'm curious about skinning and snow condition on SW ridge route.
JRay - please post your trip report!

I happened to be riding at Timberline that Saturday.

I'm in Portland for work and planning to climb Hood this weekend (5/19) and possibly Jefferson on Memorial weekend if I can partner up with someone. This is my first season splitting so I'm probably not the fastest guy. Drop me a line if interested.

The snow turned to crap this afternoon with the sun and the heat.
How slushy is the snow? Did you see people ski/snowboard? I'm planning to skin up and ride south route this weekend.

I was able to hitchhike with a group of friendly climbers from Seattle back to Woodland and got a cab to pdx.

Did you end up going? if so how was the skiing? I'm planning to be there next weekend.

Thanks everyone for sharing your experience!
Looks like it's not ideal but doable. I'm just looking for a quick and fun way to get down the mountain.

I'm planning a hike up / ride down trip at Mt St. Helens in two weeks and have been thinking about shedding some weight, leaving the snowboarding boots behind and riding down in my hiking boots. I guess I need an excuse to upgrade to a nicer pair of boots such as the La Sportiva Nepal.
Anyone snowboard in your winter/mountaineering boots?

Did you get to Timberline the night before? A couple weeks ago I tried to drive up after mid-night and found the access road impassable while plowing was in progress.
