Got some nice track on St. Helens yesterday - got up about 3000 ft before it turned into an iceberg and decided to ski down - got a tanning session around 1pm (crazy calm and warm 50). Saw like four people out.

Have fun looks brilliant.

Saturday AM was beautiful! Made it to 7000' foot level. Got icy. Plenty of POW POW in the trees and lower bowels. The mountain was also steaming. Fun to play on a active volcano.

Have fun... post pics.

i went up to timberline, not a lick of wind.... it was the craziest thing...even on top of the mile, calm. Still, not a bad day of snowboarding Smile

it was really warm up there.

my truck was reading 55F in the timberline parking lot, and 26 in government camp.

St Helens was bluebird, but a little on the light side. Mowing the lawn on 12's

Yeah that looks sweet... now if we get a giant tow rope with a bunch of handles on it, we could all get towed up there behind shay's sled. Very Happy
