Tom and I skied the Wy'East last Sunday. Cold East winds kept things firmish up high. Snow hadn't consolidated after the precip earlier in the week.

Should be good by this weekend!

I like that photo a lot
I also like WyEast face, it's a perfect date if skiing were a girl, or a boy, or a penguin if one was a gender indiscriminate penguinm lover run. Rock on!

Thanks for the tr!  wy e is a hoot...btw, have you had a look at Leutholds c ...curious if anything out of the ordinary troubling when crossing the reed gl to gain lume saddle (on the decent...I ascend the old chute and ski leotholds in order to mimimize objective bombardment..)

Saw the reid from lolo pass the other day, very filled in. In my experience spring is a terrible time for leuthold's, given the runnel in the hourglass, but if you send it and it's smooth, let me know!
