May 14, Mt Roosevelt, Snoqualmie Pass

Starting late from Alpental, I ended doing Roosevelt instead of the circumnav.  The Source lake basin still has a ton of snow, and the snow has been smoothed well by the warm weather.  A few groups in the basin, followed a party of three over to the Chair's North slope, which was smooth down to the lake.  Getting up to the upper slope of Roosevelt was on firm enough snow for booting, but not for ski cuts.  Overall, sking was good on the upper slope, the rest questionable.  The view from the summit was spectacular.  Hurried down over the avy debri, and across the Snow Lake.  Skied back all the way to the car.
