I shared this on other forums but you might be interested as well. There is an open comment period on 2 USFS projects, one restoration project in Gold Creek (Snoqualmie) and another related to hut proposals in the Mt Baker district. I volunteer with the Cascade Backcountry Alliance and helped write the guidance on the hut post here:
https://www.cascadebackcountryallian...t-baker-region
https://www.cascadebackcountryallian...d-creek-valley
Comments on either are due by May 2, please share your thoughts with the forest service!

Most people are against good things happening to others if they're left out of the benefit.

I guess I'm curious what needs to be restored at Gold Creek Pond. It's a borrow pit for heaven's sake.

from skimming through the project documents, it seems like the goal is to fill in a lot of the pond and the unnaturally wide flood plain that has evolved (due to human alteration of the valley bottom) so that there's a narrower, more consistently running creek that dries out less frequently and preserves more refuge ponds for trout who are in the upper creek in summer/fall
I'm all for anything that improves the generally abysmal state of rivers and creeks for fish habitat (and fishing) around here but 10 years of closed access (particularly during winter when they'll be doing a lot less work) without any concrete plan to add new access in the face of rapidly rising utilization of existing trailheads seems like something that needs to be mitigated before they start the project

Gorgeous morning out in the Alpental Valley. Paid to be early as it was surprisingly sunny and warming up fast.

Going to try for baker on Friday. Looks like thursday is the day but can't swing it. Bad idea with the snow over the 36 hrs or so then sky rocketing temps? Will be coming up from Glacier and the heliotrope up to coleman. Planning on a super early start. 5am ish. Any advice appreciated for some interior BC folks. Thanks!

Squalid smegmatic dank freeze foetid fog rattle bulletproof corduroy to sugar raincorn Crustal closer.
Marshall's HerLabs skis are a creeping virus, saw 3 pairs today among the few hundred indigent k00ks in the drizzle sordid snow squall freshets.
Gondolizing by 8:45, canned it at 12:15.
A most moist moss fecund fern finisher.
Empty until about 11, then line creep. Shuffled through fillling holes in quads, burned at least 15 GV laps, slowing as the line growing. Snorting Elk bowl/berry patch never thawed. GV bowl or Pro Course were the tickets.
Viz sucked skankwads, so split early.
A funny season in the PNW.

I watched the webcams and just couldn't overcome my reservations about the fog and bad light. But hey, it's skiing right? Glad you turned it into decent day & now wish I got up. Last Tuesday was good touring with a few inches of fresh for some quality meadow skipping. Early tomorrow looks like the same, might be a good day for a dawn patrol mission if it stays cold.

Friday seems like the worst possible day to be in the alpine with generous new snow and freezing levels at or above the summit of Baker.
