Weather was amazing on Satruday.
Was hoping to get down into Leather barrel creek, but was knackered and not really confident that snow quality would be worth the climb back out.

Up dead horse on the weekend.
Just stumbled across How to Ski and How Not To, a woman-written 1921 guide to skiing.
I'm particularly interested in the how NOT to ski bits.

I have now all activities I have ever recorded on a sport watch with location in one big poster. It is color coded by activity type and has a nice summary at the bottom.

“More than 14 million acres of federal public land in #Colorado could be eligible for sale if Congress passes the current version of the budget bill mandating the sale of a fraction of the nation’s public lands…[including] chunks of mountain, foothills and plains along the Front Range and the Western Slope.”

It's day two of the season at Coronet Peak and to be honest it's looking pretty dire. They've had no snow in the last seven days and only 20cm for the season so far. Compare that with Mount Hutt which has had 2.63 metres of snow. Metres!
If it wasn't for 100+ snow guns and some decent grooming, Coronet would be bald. Only the main Coronet Express and learner lifts are open. Off piste will be un-skiable.
Snow in May
goes away.
Snow in June
still too soon.

Last day of cool pattern for awhile, powder skiing 3200-3300m on Beartooth Plateau this morning

Huge drifting now, but will any remain by late Sept? Love how tiny Forget Me Nots are up here. #climatecrisis #skiing #hiking #dogs #montana #wyoming #wildflowers

"Traveling the entire length was the equivalent of climbing and descending more than eighteen Mount Everests over a distance equivalent to nearly fifty marathons."

Warm 8-11C for our two skis on/near Beartooth Plateau, snow melting fast. Still good and firm tho, great spring slush. First was 3200-3250m below 3334m pass. Fog rolled in so had cut it short. Second by 3000m Island Lake again which is opening up. After that, finally found/hiked out to Quad Creek RAWS, a vital platform . Provides important high-elev. wind info during our OCT-APR strong storm season. Lots of snowmelt/warn next 3 days. #climate #skiing #hiking #montana #mountains #dogs #beartooth
