Ellingwood couloir this morning!!!! Definitely bring the running shoes if you're headed up Garnet, as I was able to cruise almost to the Platforms before putting on the boots. Had to walk over quite a few drifts, but they were frozen solid in the morning and easy to deal with.
Made it car-to-car in just over 8 hours, which for me, is mind-boggling. Last time I skied the middle, a couple years ago, it was a 12+ hour ordeal. I guess that means I'm finally getting in shape...Last edited by powder_prophet; 05-08-2012 at 05:24 PM.
Skiing, whether you're in Wisconsin or the Alps, is a dumbass hick country sport that takes place in the middle of winter on a mountain at the end of a dirt road.

If I was you, I'd head to the Winds. that place ALWAYS delivers, for many reasons, no matter the conditions.Skiing, whether you're in Wisconsin or the Alps, is a dumbass hick country sport that takes place in the middle of winter on a mountain at the end of a dirt road.

^^Typical TGR videographer, cares more about the snow than the wolf chasing the shredder.

Anyone still out skiing? Rode No Shadows and Powder 8s yesterday. Four Shadows has a rocky crux and is otherwise melting quick. I'm not sure if it'll be continuous by next weekend. No Shadows probably isn't far behind. The snow was noticeably smoother on Powder 8s.
A more complete shot from recon on Thursday:

Seems like those early season storms are a bad omen the last few years, it never comes for good and we're left with a shitty snowpack the rest of the winter. I feel you're pain, but I'm more than happy to wait if it means less heartache in January.
