danhelmstadter Posted April 23, 2009 Posted April 23, 2009 (edited) Trip: MRNP - Carbonation Date: 4/18-19/2009 Trip Report: Dave, Pete, Sky, Eric and me set out for some fun on the north side of the dawg. We started from the Mowich Lake road closure at about 8 miles from the lake. Skinning was not to difficult in the soft wet snow. We got up to the Spray Park area and set up camp under a veiled Rainier. The lenticular grew overnight and in the morning it became apparent that our ambitious plans would have to wait for another day. We skiined up to the highpoint of Spray Park area, and skiied a bueatiful steepish 1500' line down to the Carbon Glacier. The glacier is looking much more covered than my last ski attempt on LR last July when it was in a state of total chaos. On our way back we got some great snow down from the pass above Mowich Lake. The ski back down the road went surpriseingly quickly despite it's very low angle. Adding up the miles it came out to be around 30 round trip, but it really did seem like less, i'm glad I taped my toes and heels though. Had a blast. Thanks guys!
