TR White Salmon Glacier, Mt Shuksan (for Kellie)
It seems that I share my birthday with Kellie. Since, if your knee rehab had been done at Baker as originally planned, you would have likely been on this trip, this TR is for you, Kellie!
For my B-day feast, a few local cooks decided to whip up a White Salmon feast. (“Will you still need me, will you still feed me …”)
King Salmon are supposed to be pink, but occasionally one has white meat. To the canneries, this is an aberration; to my people (Tlingat), a White Salmon is a delicacy. It has the best texture, the richest oils. If you really want to honor someone, you serve them White Salmon.
Like all good feast, the preparations begin in the early hours.
The feast itself starts with a salad …
… and progresses through the other condiments and preliminary courses …
.. until, finally, the main course is served.
The B-day boy gets his filling …
… and then invites the cooks to join in the feast.

Rod:
Jeff:
At the end, we enjoy a look at the table …
… and started the clean-up process.
Thanks for the best B-day ever, guys!

that is a serious helping of stoke.

RAD. That's the first "Europe Scale" terrain I've seen in the States. Is this in the North Cascades?
Looks like Switzerland!

Saw a crazy amount of tracks (and sketchy slides) out on Lake Anne area the last couple days as well. People are certainly getting after it...OOOOOOOHHHH, I'm the Juggernaut, bitch!

Watched you on your way down, I was extremely jealous. Stopped in to the lower lodge for a quick beer,and got to watch a couple guys hitting the kicker above chair 8, then some great lines on White Salmon.
