Had sights set on Cascadian on Stuart. Motivated by the

Mt Stuart from Longs Pass:

Great consolation turns on semi firm west face in early morning:

We, 3 guys and a black dog in a white van, met you at the trailhead as you came back? We had a nice tour up Fortune Peak(Pt 7382 above the N Fork Teanaway). Skied its big SE bowl back timberline ~4pm. Set off some slow-moving hissers but largely stable, serviceable snow back to the trees where things firmed up considerably. A good day for old farts.

Since most of the route-finding shenanigans happened in the dark, this video primarily highlights the fun we had in the sun. The skiing was better than I had hoped, given the recent warm weather and slushy skinning in the dark.
