Latest news from the most prolific TAYer (340+ days per year, 35+ years):
Hi Silas well I got in the first day of summer ski today ski-touring from end Mt sherman road to top Dyer pk (13855ft) skiing to 3m VT of summit cairn which is about 10 miles drive from house and visible from house but other side. I was able to ski about 1625 vt ft of the 1750 vt ft from trailhead and snow started 50yards from the car. A few smaller suncups but most fairly smooth and was fun corn ski run down. Only alittle part of route is visible from any one place. It was 76F in Leadville yesterday and record 99F in Denver and near that today. Maybe you can post on TAY to let people know other than west coasters are still skiing into SUMMER!
