Nice 1-4" corn skiing on north slopes. We had to skin a mile or so of road with some carries in bare patches.
45 min road walk. Nice conditions, but it should be mentioned that there is pretty bad pollen. You might want to bring some Goo Gone or something to clean it off.
very nice
Might today's rain clean the pollen off?

Nope. Still lots of pollen as of yesterday. At least it gives me a chance to show my skis that it's not always a one-sided relationship. ;)
Hmm, how bad is it?
Never been to Pilchuck, and it sounds like it would make a nice dusk patrol... a change from Alpental

it's not worth your time, move along
sarcasm n16ht5? Not like you're keeping them out of your pow this time of year!
only about a mile now to the trailhead. One carry (might be no carry in a day or two). Pilchuck skied nicely yesterday 5 pm.
