Take a picture of it to get a better view

I couldn't take any photos so I just watched. Here's a couple from my mom's iPhone. Colors were less perceptible to the naked eye but the rays, streams, pillars, curtains, etc. were bright and at times filed the whole sky from horizon to horizon. This from Camano Island.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...0dea3c9e81.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...55f3e77f4a.jpg
Same over here in Wenatchee. Growing up in WA never saw a display like this, not subtle at all even with a fair amount of light pollution

Yeah, it was pretty amazing. Better than I expected it to be. I'm sure it was better other places, but I watched for a couple hours.
Just moved up here from Utah, looking into skiing in the North Cascades soon, anyone know if Shuksan, Cascade Pass or WA pass are still worth skiing, or if there are good places to get that info besides Facebook?
Facebook TAY is a lot more active since the update killed old turns-all-year, so you may be stuck with that. A couple of recent reports on the website show good conditions in Cascade pass last week. Nwac observations are more useful this year too.Quote:

We are transitioning quickly into summer snowpack. I imagine volcanoes will be prime soon. I skied last Wednesday on Kulshan and found pow. Hoping for some real corn on my next outing.
Hit me up if you are in Bellingham
Managed to get just below the summit on the Roman wall on Friday. Was an awesome experience. Still going through photos but thanks a lot for the help on here! That is a big day in ski boots lol.
WA pass is skiing fine on N faces. Getting shitty in the woods, but so what.Quote:

Good turns in the Teanaway today:

Anyone remember that link for the snow coverage map? I think it was a bunch of pages back. It was super handy and I bookmarked it and now I can't find it.
I was in the Methow this weekend but didn't bring skis. Still took a few photos to show coverage near the hairpin. Snowpack seemed a bit deeper at RainyAttachment 493927Attachment 493928Attachment 493929

Any chance it's the WTA map? I literally just stumbled across it https://www.wta.org/go-outside/mapQuote:

It's somewhat accurate, but don't treat it as gospel, particularly in steep areas because the pixel sizes for its predictions are pretty large
What were you thinking of skiing on SFJ? The best approach to Cardinal might be from Lucerne up to Domke Lake/Emerald Park. I’m not sure on the Entiat Road.Quote:

Silver peak coverage is pretty ideal right now. The hot pow was fun around 930 yesterday, guessing the dozens of people heading up after us had it worse though
which one of you skied the zipper yesterday? looked pretty in!
Still great skiing at WA Pass from the car. Telemetry wasn’t working for a few days, but it’s working now, and you can tell it’s been freezing hard every night, so it’s all simply about timing the corn.

Really nice morning up on Silver Peak, easy skiing from the car (just a couple short carries) should be in play for another week or so.

I just got up here to visit my Mom and there’s an atmospheric river forecast to hit starting Sunday. Cascades could get up to 4” of rain. Wow. Wasn’t expecting this.
Hard to tell what’s coming from the weather today. Beautiful out.
