Mush and more  mush . 9500 above and tight to Anvil rock Ridge very  good!
Traverse to enter Nisqually Chute  Boot top mush so bagged chute to traverse back to McClure rock. Fairly nice ski down to golden gate with recently learned advanced slush techniques. Golden gate had gold rated slush so was fun . Angel face entry was blocked by glide crack. Did a run around  and slush shused back to car. Nice wind again keeping body cool . Gonna try north facing tatoosh  tomorrow even if I have to sneaker walk .

The sneaker walk. This is an exercise for the young. ;)
