Pretty light snow year up in the Range, but still some good skiing to be had. Have been up there a couple times, most recently this past Sunday, and the couloirs are buffed out (no runnels) and still in good shape though the east face is fading pretty quickly. Have been getting some decent freezes, so the bootpack and corn conditions have also been good. Have photos if interested.

That sounds interesting to me.
- A mountain is not a checkbox to be ticked
- Alpinism and mountaineering are not restricted to 14,000 foot mountains
- Judgment and experience are the two most important pieces of gear you own
- Being honest to yourself and others about your abilities is a characteristic of experienced climbers
- Courage cannot be bought at REI or carried with you in your rucksack
