Sweet! But I was thinking more about at this time of year. The biggest problem would probably be the road, not sure how far down it'd be snowed under, which is what made me think it would take more than a day.

The winter of '04/05 was a low-snow year, I bet there'd be a lot more snow up there this year in early June.

I've been contemplating a sled assist climb/ski of Maude this Spring. Anyone been up the road to Trinity with a sled? I climbed Maude this summer and the wilderness boundary is a couple miles up the valley from the summer trail head. As far as I know, this is as far as you can legally drive a sled. The trail to that point is almost as wide as a jeep road so it would be an easy approach.

nice timing - the bump and the ski! Glad I didn't miss this TR.

Thanks for the outstanding photos.

You mentioned the "reproach" only passingly. I'd like to know more about the approach. Was it pretty straightforward (assuming roads melted out with some snow left in the valley i.e. I'd like to get in there later this spring)?

I heard there is a head-wall somewhere along the river maybe further up than where you guys were.

Again beautiful photos and nice job on the ski.
