skibum1087 Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Me and a buddy are looking at the Coleman Deming for Friday and Saturday, I was wondering if anybody had been on open slopes around that elevation and had info on snow conditions. We'd be on either snowshoes or skins, but are a little worried about major postholing and trail breaking. Also if anybody had seen the North Ridge and had info on what kind of shape it was in that would be sweet. I saw the thread on the road acsess and am assuming about a 4 mile slog on that, but if anybody has another opinion on that let me know. Thanks a lot Spencer Quote
G-spotter Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 I can see it from my office window, it got freshiez yesterday, and supposed to again tomorrow and Fri. Quote
Choada_Boy Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 It certainly doesn't look like the pictures in the book this morning. I fact, it looks like a big 'ole cloud, with more clouds forecasted. Do you have any cloudtons? Yhe Sisters are as white as can be, and the general wind trend is SW==>NE, so I would expect the NR aspect of Baker to be a bit of a wallow, which, in addition to the increasingly complex challenge of the approach across the Coleman and Rosevelt and the forecasted weather, could make for quite an alpine experience for ya!!
