Sounds like a good time

Belated thanks to Ryang and Telewoman for the pics and info, and sorry for any thread drift. If any of you guys go next week let us know how it goes.

Aybody want to go June 11-12?

So....Are you in?

I'll go anytime between mid-May and Mid-June. Hotlum-Wintun would be my favorite choice.

Me and Mud will be there this weekend. Casaval or Green Butte are in our sights

I'm thinking about Hotlum-Wintun for Memorial weekend with a small group of friends. But with all the snow this year the east-side trailheads may not be accessible by vehicle.

Perfect for skiing.

Depends on work/plans etc..I hope I can be in. Which route?

Hotlum-Wintun is my first choice. Since I have never been on this mountain before I was also thinking about the trade route unless a local joins us.

If anybody gets up there this weekend and manages to take pictures of that upper part of Cascade Gulch it would be most appreciated

Rob, I am going but now commited to Casaval..Scott

After you get up almost to the top of Misery Hill, near the summit plateau you should be able to look down on the Whitney Glacier and the upper portion of Cascade Gulch. That's the general vicinity of where the above pics were taken.

That is, if you get that far Any pics of that area would be highly appreciated !

Hey Rob, Just what are you saying ?

(although I did injury my ankle running last night. So I now have an excuse!)

Snowflake, -As of today our group looks like 4 skiers and 2 booters, but people are likely to change their mind about the route or just back out between now and Memorial Weekend.

Robin, -please keep sharing updates on conditions. I'll be trying to keep informed so I'll know how many additional days of cross country travel will be needed to get to the eastside from the point of closure.

What days? We fly in on the 10th. and will be on the mountain the 11th-12th or 13th.
