Dec 13th Update

Looks like storms are barely skimming past the Wendy Thompson area and instead hitting the Elfin Lakes area harder. So I am considering heading there instead. I'm open to any suggestions if anyone is keen to get out somewhere for two nights! 

---------------------------------------

Hello! 

I am planning on driving up to Wendy Thompson Hut for December 18th-20th (2 night stay). It looks like it's going to be pretty quiet mid-week according to the Wendy Thompson reservation system and it looks like we're getting a couple of good storms before then. If anyone is interested in coming up with me, you should have backcountry experience (AST-1, tree skiing, can ski variable conditions) and can give me an email or drop a line on the message board! I got 3 car spots left in the my vehicle. 

 

*The Duffening is a Happening of superb blower snow that's just euphoric to ski! Expect to give yourself a faceshot with every turn if you're not careful!
