After last weeks expedition I was seeking more turns closer to home for less effort. Still pretty good turns to be had off of the trail but the snow is melting fast!

I see you have beefier skis to go with your shorter approach. 
How does McCartney look for next week?

Should be plenty of snow for turns in the Basin but pretty mellow skiing.....a good mixed climb.  A loop around to Lillian Lake might be interesting if you have a couple days. Definitely bring a whippet or an axe for traversing those north facing snow slopes in the am.
