Foolishly thought the glorious snow from yesterday would hold somehow. Trudged uphill in the rain, avoiding wet tree bombs all the way, in a vain attempt to reach Kendall Knob. Turned around after 700' of sopping wet vert, sketchy stream crossings, and righteous treefucking. Descent was not as bad as expected - tree bombed surfaces carved better than untracked wet pow. Soaked to the bone, gloves wringing brown water from all the treehugging. Sure made a hot shower and tea taste good at home.
Ah, Cascadia. Way to put your head down (with your hood up?)... And become one with the trees.

On the other hand, Scott reported "Mt. Catherine
Great day in the hood"


By now Silas should know that a bad day of skiing is better than a good day of working...

Sometimes a "good  day" is one where you  don't get killed  or injured by a tree bomb!
