Toured the high 12 today, still quite thin. Hoar frost was shredded, grass was mowed, and rocks were rolled. Glad they had the wrod in place for the last 300 ft of down.

Heading up to Stevens to schmear around on some mellow terrain and stretch the legs a bit. Probably just to do some meadow skipping in the vicinity of Skyline because I'm solo and coverage blows.
Yellow helmet, wood veneer topsheet Praxis, if anyone feels like saying hello.

This week is looking promising. Already off to a strong start, picked up 3" overnight at my house on the Eastern Slope.
I'll bet all Cascade Hills open by Wednesday, except for the padded seats.

Meh, we knew the deal when we bought the pass. Always the last to open, always the last to close. Usually has the best day of my year, always has the most character building snow conditions of my year.
Im headed down to hood later this week into the weekend. Then by next weekend ill be in tahoe for family Xmas, and then onto SLC for girlfriends family xmas. Won't be back home in the PNW till the 29th, by which time i would bet the padded seats are loading and i can get that warm fuzzy feeling again as i glide above The Fan.

4" in the last 24 in Hyak, 8" @ pass level and I'm hearing good things from the land of the padded seats. This should make a great appetizer for Tues. main course, I'm just hoping Thurs. will feature some easterly flow

I'll likely be up there getting my first laps of the season in with a buddy. Will be a struggle for sure but happy to always meet people!

Call me the eternal pessimist where the snow stake is never quite half way, but 3" doesn't sound like a "strong" start. I'm hoping for a lot more, like 10x more. I shall be somewhere most likely in the state of WA this up coming weekend. Hopefully Ullr stops and chills out for a week in whatever place I'm at...

Be careful what you wish for. In past years it was easy enough to avoid the shit show by leaving a little earlier. If they actually implement chain checks, prepare for horrendous traffic backups similar to what you see on I-80 in CA during a storm (and it doesnt end up being much safer). When every, single, car has to stop and have a 5 sec convo with a WSDOT/HP person the ensuing backup gets miles long.
If not chain check points, how else would they enforce it?
