Spring time on Pea Gravel today.  The proto-corn skied really well as long as it was still in the sun; shady stuff got crusty fast.  Easy approach in and out despite thin-ish snow cover.  Might have to continue the proper corn harvest tomorrow on the South side of the mountain.  It's not powder, but it's not bad either given it's the driest December on record so far in Oregon.

A group of us were up there yesterday.  The cat track is not in, but there is a well established ski track and the creek crossings are easy.
