Climb: McClellan Butte East Face ski descent (First?)-

 

Date of Climb: 3/15/2006

 

Trip Report:

On March 14th, Dave Perkins accompanied me on a ski descent off McClellan Butte's East Face. The descent offers almost 2900 feet of fall line skiing ranging in steepness between 45 degrees at the top and much mellower terrain at the bottom. We thought it was a good time and before we had to make turns, we actually thought it was a bright idea. As it turns out, it was a great descent. Conditions happened to be great and I think this descent is very much dependent on that.

I posted something on my websitewww.proguiding.com/PDFs/McClellan.pdf , so check it out. I saw that Dave's post got a negative response about the pdf

What is the reason? I am pretty green about that stuff.

Some of us have security restrictions at work that prevent us from opening ANY pdf. And if you only have dial-up at home, opening a pdf can be agonizingly slow.
