Whats a short hike? Torreys isn't bad. Not sure what it'll look like in a week, but you've got Tuning Forks and Dead Dog as options.

if you've never been to Indy, give it a drive and see what you see.Quote:

Decent snow on conundrum over the weekend. Good freeze despite the warm temps so don't be shy about getting up high. Around 2 grand of continuous skiing. Did not suck for late June

Yeah, getting there. The swarms of mosquitoes were a bigger inconvenience than the snow surface quality.Quote:

Suncups this past weekend. The flats are cupped, the steeps are smooth and in between is runneled.
Have fun and don't fall this time of year.
Totally agree with you..Mosquitoes are the major problem here during snow.Quote:

How'd the surface been? Ye olde vertical seams, deep sun cups?
Skyscraper was still good last weekend. Could also ski a little line from the parking lot down to the Bob/Betty lake trail, which added ~4-500' of vert to the day. Starting to get suncupped but not so bad it wasn't fun skiing.

Take a look at Challenger glacier to the north?
How's the road up from WP this year? Seems to get rougher every year.
Thinking of getting some turns in this week or weekend
Anyone get out this weekend and note some decent continuous snow? South Paw off Torrey's looks like it might still be doable based on some Instagram creeping. Left August a little late this year...
