jhamaker Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 Other than Rainier, Hood, and St. Helens, what volcanos and what routes have good rd access right now for an easy two day ski? S Side preferred. Quote
b-rock Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 Mt Adams SS via Smith Butte Sno-Park could be done. Quote
jhamaker Posted April 8, 2002 Author Posted April 8, 2002 From maps and http://www.fs.fed.us/gpnf/wrec/d3_ccs.htm#mapyes, it could be done. But would *you* do it? 10 miles and 8,000ft to the summit. Quote
b-rock Posted April 8, 2002 Posted April 8, 2002 Almost did it two weekends ago. Gave up at about 10K because of high winds, and well, we were really there to ski. Right, and we made it a three day trip because of an afternoon start and the fact that the sno-park was not accessable and we parked 2.5 miles away (should be melted out by now - almost was on the way back to the car). Its long, but yeah, it could be done in two. Or rather to answer your question, I'd do it and if I did it again, I would try for two days. Quote
roboclimber Posted April 10, 2002 Posted April 10, 2002 Theres' this real cool place I recently found for great telemark skiing, man I can't believe how accessible it is. The snow was great and the views on a clear day are fantastic and its not too far away from Mount Rainier. Here is the best way to get there, just follow the signs for Crystal Mnt. Quote
