Given the warnings of limited snow at Sunrise, Bonnie, Hans and I headed to Chinook Pass.  Fairly limited their too, but skied the bowls immediately above the road for a couple of runs.  Although pronounced suncups and mixed fog and clouds limited the skiing, a good time was had by all.  Went up to Sunrise to check it out in the afternoon, but the fog was pretty severe.  Settled for a nice hike on the lower reaches of Fryingpan creek. 

Probably the end of the road for the roadside at Chinook
