That's awesome to see, thanks for the report Ted. Yeah I didn't like the looks of the wind affect yesterday and decided not to tempt the upper elevation starting zones with big fresh cross loaded pillows hangin' out up there. Looks like some people kicked a few off elsewhere so not regretting that choice one bit. There will be some good days coming up though.

How was that East Rosebud approach Ted? Did you top out on Froze to Death plateau?

That storm on Saturday along the Beartooth Front dropped a shit ton of snow down low. We skinned from the trailhead all the way to the top of the plateau, skied all the way down to the trail and then skinned back to the car. It was already melting out along the trail though so I'd imagine that snow won't hang around long

Nice photos, worthy goals and excellent decision making.
On another note. RIP Marc.
You will be missed my friend.

Nice! Been up there in autumn, never on skis... looked like it'd make a killer tour. How was the skiing? Did you tag the Helmet, too? Where's the snow line?

Hell yeah, that's cool man. Appears that whatever happened to your knee earlier this season has healed up pretty well.

Snow line was probably around 8000', that south facing approach drainage doesn't have any snow in it right now. Coverage was fine off the summit and in the west gully. Knees getting closer, mcl still bugs me a little but at this point I think I just have to build my confidence back up so I can ski hard again

Tone and Ted, nice pics, you guys inspired me to get out. Way to get after it. Made it and skied Chamonix couloir yesterday. What a line! Skiing was marginal at best, a little bit of everything. The worst was through the choke near the end of the line, massive frozen debris chunks made turns near impossible. After that smooth corn snow ripping. Phone died near the top, so no action shots unfortunately.

Nice, glad to hear and see, thank you. I got out a bit recently too, so here's to doin my part to keep the motivation level up. Hope to get out the next few days and poke around somewhere but not really set on anything yet. We'll see what the winds do with this storm and what the weather ends up being like.
Afternoon shred:
Not over yet:
Next day worked out fairly well:
A little peak bagging mission that's been tugging at me for a while.
scary perch:
A little blown off lower down but perfectly skiable.
Found the hero pow hiding out up high and north facing:
Pretty stoked:
Mordor!
Hard to resist, shit, if no one else is going to:
Did some convienient yoyo laps
Inch of dust on semi breakable crust but still fun and good enough to make a pretty picture, I'll take it.
Lower slope that wasn't debris was awesome! Kind of thin breakable crust that still skied like pow.
The noodle master himself even deemed my turns spoon worthy, haha. Good times buddy! Fun note to end the day on.
It's getting to that point where people are on to other things but I am trying to stay motivated. Hit me up if anyone can get out and see what ullr left it his wake the next few days.Last edited by tone capone; 04-09-2017 at 03:24 PM.

This thread has been full on stoke lately. RLM skied nicely today with a variable 5-8" new across the mountain. Super windy, so lots of free refills.

...and the mountain was nice enough not to send out their powder alerts until after 9 a.m., so it felt more like a weekday than a weekend. I don't have any action shots, because we were generally too busy skiing, but Cole Creek was skiing rather nicely with new snow on top of enough base to cover most of the obstacles in the trees.

Yes! Gotta love first tracks on that face! I went to the T roots today, surprise surprise, it was mostly wind fucked and windy as fuck. Still pieced together a half decent line in the less consequential terrain but had no regrets about not crawling up one of the steep couloirs.
Any beta from the other ranges/other peoples outings or possible joining of forces would be greatly appreciated! I have the next few days off and feel like I should make the most of them. I am more of the mindset of just going to a drainage and seeing what looks good rather than being dead set on a certain objective if anyone might be interested."The skis just popped me up out of the snow and I went screaming down the hill on a high better than any heroin junkie."
