I know it's been sloppy between 5-7000'. Anyone have any info on south side conditions? Thinking of a slog up Friday the 15th if the clouds part. Thanks.

That looks like a great site. I wasn't aware of it. Thanks for posting.

Did SS last weekend, Sat. April 9 w/ David, David, Preston.

 

High winds & snow to top o' palmer, better Wx afterwards.

 

Snow conditions good, from windcrust to 8" wind deposits. Hogsback & chute in good condition, good steps, not too icy.

 

Downclimbed 150' into Old Chute & strapped skis on for the first turn of the season dropping in. Skied down into whiteout at top of Palmer again on pretty good snow by Crater Rock & Ill Saddle.

 

Good day and great timing on the Wx window, D

summitted south side on sunday, 4/10. fine viz. schrund was closed. pearly gates in good condition, not too steep, after all that snow last 2 weeks. summitted at 9am, suprisingly wind free. i think conditions were a lot easier than party who went up on sat. have fun if you go up.
