Trip: North Cascades - Sahale Arm/Cascade Pass

 

Date: 11/10/2017

 

Trip Report:

Early start out of Bellingham led us up cascade river round right as the sun was rising. Road closed at mile 21, bare pavement to just about the TH.

 

Coverage was a little thin, but things are filling in nicely! We were able to start skining about a half mile before Cascade Pass. The arm was completely wind scoured. Skinable up, bot skiable down (especially since all three of us were on new skis and a little over protective of our fresh bases lol) This led us to some laps almost down to the lake on some fun north facing slopes with great snow! All south aspects were not so fun.

 

Never a bad day out in the Cascades, especially when it's bluebird

Thanks! It's probably not fairing well with this warmer spell, but hopefully back soon!
