Blake Posted March 8, 2004 Share Posted March 8, 2004 I skied the heather canyon area of meadows yesterday for the first time, enjoyed it thoroughly. However, only the lower section was open. (Looks like it was lower 3/4 or so) I could see tracks way across the canyon to the far wall and what looked like some nice lines coming down, while some followed the opposite wall of the canyon all the way down to the HC chair before dropping in opposite Jack's Woods. How the heck do people get over there to start with? Can it be reached from a meadows lift, do you have to hike/skin up, or a comnbination of both? Cascade Express wasn't really operating and there were still a lot of tracks on top of the fresh snow from the night before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted March 8, 2004 Author Share Posted March 8, 2004 thanks for the info, i'll give the cascade traverse over a try if I feel rich enough to go day skiing there again. I found this http://www.spiritone.com/~carpjam/html/hood/heather.htm with some pertinent pics too. What is Newton Ridge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b-rock Posted March 8, 2004 Share Posted March 8, 2004 props to the meadows ski patrol though for always stopping to chat about what they find controlling for avys, in between busting boarders for poaching heather canyon before it opens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
