Congratulations to the Dynamic Duo and my Pain Sister for doing a great job on Snow Creek in less than ideal conditions -- that looked like a slog

Miles of smiles,
Ellen

great photos Steve! you took some great shots of a trip that was pretty harsh. happy to know that the unalpine start afforded you a harassment-free approach. so we know it sucked compared to last year, but where will you be hiking this weekend???

i don't expcect you to answer that but i know how you LOVE a challenge. plus the DWA is always watching.

I was very excited about the cold this weekend as it pertains to firming up the snowpack should a person decide they wanted to, in theory, try such a route...however, looks like we might be getting 6-12 inches of new snow on top of that - not the safest idea if the totals end up like they are predicting. I hope they are right on the cold and wrong on the dump.

Nice TR! I've had my eye on that area for quite some time...

Congratulations on a very difficult route. I'm staying off those black diamond routes and sticking to the bunny slopes

I live on a diet of chocolate and red wine, not wheaties and jungle juice!

LOL! you don't have to give up the wine and chocolate. that's a fine choice for dinner. but don't knock wheaties and jungle juice until you have tried it. i hear they serve that at the hut on Orizaba!

I drink beer and eat Tommy's chiliburgers and I still climb.

For my coffe on sunday morning.....this sounds weird I know, but it worked
( I have an addiction ) I took a vanilla muscle Milk, and a couple starbucks VIA packs, shook them together, it was actually pretty good if youre a person that needs coffee in the morning and you don't have a way to make it.

that picture of Talus looks like she had some of your chocolate, and my caffiene Tracie..
