I haven't been up lately but please, for the love of god, let the air out or puncture the tires on all Sprinters with WA plates.

I expect, now that the powder has become peanut butter/refreeze, the Sprinter locusts will fly away.

You want them stuck there?
But if you're going to do it, do it in style:

(bonus points for leaving them just loose enough to leak but not be visibly problematic)

Thanks for the info on Marshall.
Definitely peanut butter at the bowl yesterday!!! Maybe a corn cycle beginning, though.

I have a lot of road bike miles already. Kind of want to try some dirt but the trails seem crowded enough as is.

I think it might finally be time I got on the mountain bike.
Stan, as far as I can tell, you can just walk/skin around the red gate and the owner seems ok with it.
I finally did it a little while ago. I started early so was all by myself for awhile but on the way down I past a few people coming up the way I did and a lot of cars next to mine in the lot.

With the weather change fast approaching, thought that I'd take advantage of the corn harvest today. Work delayed my starting time, but managed a good lap down Far East -> Angel Face.
Looked for my lost ski near Tree Chute, but no sign yet of any ski tip poking out.
Thank god this virus decided to show up during the spring and not in the dead of winter.

Haven't actually been anywhere else yet. Working from home only gives me a couple hours to get away at a time, and the weekends are spent with the GF since we're the only social life we got right now.
I've been pleasantly surprised by how long the coverage has stuck around up there. Only bare spots I saw were on Griz chute, but they were in the obvious spots. The corner on the outrun was ever-slightly showing a thin spot, but hopefully this weekend's storm will keep it going for a while.

That's a tough one, and it depends on how the temps go. If it's right-side up (warm -> cold), then you'll have an easier time with potential storm slabs. Throw in wind though, and you'll have problems, which this system will have.
As for the deeper snowpack: lower elevations and southern slopes will be more isothermic. Higher elevations and northward slopes will still have deeper layers still in play. This week's temps have helped a bit, but we have not had that serious warm spell yet.

Someone was firing a gun up in the bowls today. Apparently skiing isn't fun enough without gunfire.

West Ridge this morning: top third- mostly soft and fun, middle third- a bit stiff but still enjoyable, bottom third- set up pretty firm, skiable but grabby. Not sure what the sun will do to the bottom third, but it might soften up enough to make turning easier, at least for an hour or so. It looked like Lavelle could be fun for a while, but didn't try it.
There is a real possibility that the Forest Service may tell SB to shut down public access. Last Sunday was a bit much for the FS's comfort level, apparently.
