Climbed and skied Crescent Moon Coulier Sunday. Climb was fun with an exciting top out. Snow was soft and lots of ledges from side slipping in the top half, with the steep pitch I skied that part very conservatively (ie. side slipped it too hah). Not a lot of room left on top to get skis on.
Only took one pic when we changed to booting.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...bc2ec8cc7e.jpg

Skied in the fucking rain today at Squaw. It was actually fun. Against my personal policy but had new skis to try out...

Think rain repeat tomorrow, dust on crust, or actual accumulation?
And the verdict on the skis is...Quote:

now that looks nice. forecast for the next week looks real good for keeping it coming; especially south.
Definitly worthy getting out today some wind blown spots were 1 1/2 feet deep, all turns were bottomless

Looks like a repeat:
Not the bottomless turns we got at kirkwood yesterday but Waterhouse was entertaining enough for a couple laps. Prolly should have made the trek back out to the wood.

I heard something went down at the Wood today. Any news?
Besides being to lazy to drive back out there today, we had some concerns on wind loading out there, late afternoon yesterday the wind was moving a lot of snow around.Quote:

Man, you got it today! I'm going there tomorrow. Any ice there?

Not ice, but spots with very firm old snow. Crampons were praised.Quote:

Given that it's supposed to freeze tonight, methinks lift-served skiing/riding is gonna be muy interesting tomorrow...AM was completely tracked out/cut up by 10 am this morning (though it kept skiing well up until I called it at 11:30).
That said, they are calling for more snow tomorrow night, Sunday, Monday night, and Tues, turning to rain starting Wed...at least that's the "predictions" as of now...
