5/15/2011 Route: North East ridge via Fish Hatchery TH Posted On: 5/16/2011, By: GerryRigged Info: I did a solo ski of Massive yesterday. There was continious snow from just below the junction of the Highline Trail and the Colorado Trail. I was able to skin from near the Evergreen Lakes but it was spotty in a few areas. Snow conditions were a consistant two to four inch layer of corn on a hard crust going all the way to the summit and back down to about 10,500 feet then a slog the rest of the way out. I saw some small wet slides on steep east facing slopes of mountains to west but none on Massive. The east slope was a good corn ski all the way back down below tree line. Pic #1-Looking back up toward the summit. Pic #2-Looking down the east gully. |

3/15/2011 Route: From Fish Hatchery TH Posted On: 3/16/2011, By: Bean Info: Good trench most of the way to treeline, at least until the next storm. Once above treeline it's possible to stay off snow most of the way if you work for it. Mostly-continuous skiable line all the way down. |
