Any reports from Alta dawn Patrollers?? I heard there might be a wind crust on some aspects? Any first hand knowledge to drop on me? Thinking of an afternoon assault.
thx.

headed up B right on for a dusk patrol up to millie to pick up where i left off last season. Coverage looking a little thin in tlp/wolvie area
decent light pow on a pretty stout crust representive hasty pit
ski down decent although a little bony.
You rog none cares your butthurt cause the wiz was mean to you just as noone cared when you'd come into the soli village all pumped on the 47 turns you made on sweet roll bowl or usa if you have an ob pertaining to wasatch conditions or stoke post em up otherwise if you and others could please think twice about hitting that reply button this thread will be more informative and better.

Baldy shoulder and most everything around it was pretty tracked out as well this morning. Word on the street is the main chute is bumped out, and judging by hordes of people headed up that direction I'd believe it. The skiing was still good if you don't mind chopped up snow. No wind crust on N or E aspects.

Howdy folks. First time post, long time thread follower. I figured I might as well add my two cents worth of obs instead of whoring all the beta that is so kindly presented in this forum. Here's a few shots from Tues morning up Days... Skied good and stable for me.
Is it just me or does this rog dude have some balls messing around with a coupla respectable Wasatch regulars (Dibbs and the Wizard).
I once made 48 1/2 turns down USA, does that count as maxutilization (did I spell that correctly?)?

Nice to see all the photos, I can't imagine how long this thread will be at the end of the season, it may even rival the east coast threads.
Ill add this, skierboyz checked out some prime zones (of rocks, skiing and avi's) yesterday and nothing to report but epic skiing. Not one rock was hit either, nor felt skinning up.
You can have it now.

Thanks for the skinner, John. EC was mostly tracked out, except for the only contiguous fall line available on the whole pitch. WTF?

Nice morning out. Feels like the crust under the new snow is breaking down slowly. Still some great early November turns to be had.

TyFalk doing what he does
Ventricular exploration
Elf Shoes doing what they do
Overnight wind filled in tracks and skinners from earlier in the week. Above tree line we found soft but sensitive wind slabs in the morning. A little mid-day green-housing baked the snap out of it though. Solar aspects got cooked this afternoon.

FARMUS MAXIMUS
out east? you betcha! almost as legit as hailing from the mid west SFBJK
no beef with bob. i held a grudge at one point for somethin stupid. guess it still comes out in text when tickled, but no hard feelings. i do respect the man for who he is and what he's done and does. takes purdy pictures too.
sounds like a nice tour you have in store. love that area myself. especially below the cirque, or tux of the west
here's there. 7 days after most recent snows. nice spot where the riff raff don't often bother to go. craigs tracks observers right are always recognized.

^^^^^^Here you go Toby, from MacDonalds Draw on the PC ridge line today.
At least a foot less snow up there compared to upper LCC/BCC.
Only around 70cm up high on the PC ridge. Heat Crust 30cm deep from that warm first week of Nov. Moderate density from the last storm still skiing fast and smooth. CT 28 Q3 below the heat crust. East, 9500 apx.
Upper PC ridgeline skied surprisingly well and rock free today in the typical spots.

WRA, SFB, or Trackhead: one of yall drop this? Smells like a mixture of box wine an metamucil. PM with description wine's make and model to claim.
Salida headed down
We found a 2cm temp crust on the surface above 10k', but not below. Present even on NE slopes that dont get a lot of sun this time of year. I wonder if the peaks in LCC got greenhoused by the clouds that filled the upper valley on Friday afternoon while lower elevation slopes were too socked in to be affected?
