Ski Touring at Snoqualime Pass July 1

[Beck]

A couple buddies and I went ski touring at Snoqualamie Pass on Sunday. We put in over 1,000 vertical feet of descent (not counting yo-yos)in the North facing bowls from Melakwa Pass down to Chair Peak Lake and continuing down to some benches that led us over to Gem Lake, then caught some great touring in the trees from Gem partway down to Snow lake. 15 miles m/l car to car from Denny Creek trailhead up and around Chair/Bryant Massif and down to Snow Lake trailhead at the Alpental parking lot. Truly a fine day of skiing in July at Snoqualamie Pass.
