Not having the wherewithal to drive to a volcano, I took a chance and headed up to Chair Peak Basin based on a blurry pic taken from the summit of Guye Peak that showed snow. The surface was a bit more rubbly than I expected, but there was enough snow without embedded stones that a decent line could be found. Cups weren't too bad and the morning clouds and cool breeze kept the surface fast.

Hurray for creative summer skiing.
Bet you had it to yourself.

Wow!  I haven't been up there in 3 weeks, and I wouldn't have expected any skiing would be left.  I might have to return this weekend.  Thanks.

I took the same pic of the diamonds, except mine were w/ the 'newer' Rossi logo !  (in the zone)
