"December 6, 2024. Stunning sunrise. Finally got to climb Mazama Chute after having to turn around in July and do 1 o'clock instead when there was an ice step with bad sticks. Cruiser climbing conditions today. Descended via 1 o'clock. Natural ice fall was more prevalent than I have seen coming down from the Old/Chute 1 o'clock area. The snow did not quite warm up enough for an amazing ski down, but still not too bad above Palmer. With Ryan." — runningvegan • Dec 6, 2024

"November 30, 2024. Climbed Pearly Gate left, there were two mixed rock/ice sections leading into the gates. The sun during the week made the ice melt quickly off these sections, previously they were not reported to be mixed. There was an 8-ish foot ice step in the left gate. Challenging conditions, with a mix of good sticks and not so good sticks. Ice was easy to flake off in places and totally solid in others. Really had to work for the summit today. Descended via 1 o'clock, easy peasy. Excellent early snow made for great skiing conditions on the way down. With Ryan. " — runningvegan • Nov 30, 2024

"October 25, 2024. A nice, clear fall day. Hiked in from Pamelia Lake TH, great views of Jefferson with a dusting of snow. Poked around the lake a bit afterwards and watched a pair of bald eagles chase ducks. " — runningvegan • Oct 25, 2024

"July 13, 2024. Road booter for the first mile then skinned up. Solid refreeze overnight made for great climbing conditions. We tried Manama Chute and the snow at the very top was rotten, came back down and climbed trusty 1 o’clock up and down. Best skiing down from Devils Kitchen when compared to the last two summits. Skied all the way down to the parking lot. With Ryan. " — runningvegan • Jul 13, 2024

"June 30, 2024. A great day above the clouds. Rained and misted on the drive in. Climbed 1 o’clock up and down and skied down from DK. 40 minutes slower post-Covid. With Ryan. " — runningvegan • Jun 30, 2024
