i had to go skiing today. so after class i went and toured up at stevens. the snow was perfect. about 40-50 inches of snowpack with the top 10 inches being blower stevens sugar on top of deep windpow. i hiked up to the steepest/longest/straightest run at the ski area and had wonderful untracked goodness all the way down. and of course it started dumping right when i got to the bottom. sorry for the 'no action pics', but when you roll solo....

Way to hit it. I just pray a pineapple doesn't take out the snow by the time I get back there. Be careful with that solo touring.

Nice pics. When does Stevens open? Looks like they have some pretty good coverage.

OK, I guess that fits the bill as the steepest/longest/straightest run at the area alright.
The website says only Skyline, Daisy and Hogsback will be running for the opener so sounds like the goods will remain hike-to for a while yet.
