Northward Ho!

Wedge Mountain, just north of Whistler, is the highest peak in BC's Garibaldi Provincial Park. Drive time is under five hours from Seattle. Last Friday, Dan and I had absolutely perfect new August corn skiing Wedge's Northeast Arête. It just so happens that myriad other peaks near 9,000 ft are within another one to two hours north.

What am I thinking?

Smooth and soft

"One of the couloirs we'd originally had in mind looked constipated with poopy rockfall and a big bergschrund to block its bowels."

HAHAHA, if only this description could appear on the cover of Backcountry, Couloir or whatever.

Certainly looks like it tops anything left in WA.

If he did, it wouldn't be a "sickness".
