February 16, 2015, Hood Old Cht, Crater Rock, WR

Climbed Hood today via the Pearly Gates right variation topping out around 8:30 am. The old chute provided some very stiff and icy skiing, so we sat around on the Hogs Back waiting for it to soften. While there, we got the crazy idea to go tag the top of crater rock, and then for shits I skied the (surprisingly) steep North face of the thing in (surprisingly) good snow.

We skied out White River from the top with some good corn turns taking us back to Timberline.
