Anybody have any information on Chinook pass or Sunrise and the snow conditions at either place.

Thanks.. looking to make a few turns this coming weekend.

We were at Sunrise yesterday (7/8). Dege Peak looked pretty thin, so we didn't hike out there. Probably skiable (at least yesterday) but not for long. We found a few fingers to ski on the back of Sourdough ridge, but those might not last til next weekend. The slopes out on Burroughs look like they'll last a bit longer. But if I were hiking that far to get to snow, I'd probably just go to Paradise side.

What Greg said. Here's notes from the past weekend. http://www.turns-all-year.com/skiing_snowboarding/trip_reports/index.php?topic=7503.0 . There's a nice patch on the back of the Fremont lookout, too, but it's a ways in for a short run.
