Southern Comfort? Got sick on that in college and just the smell makes me want to hurl. Looking forward to being up there later this evening. Could you repost some details as to where things are happening tonight or more importantly who this weekends schedule of events works - 1st time summiter.

Misery Whip was my run of the day, all 3 times I skied it. Great snow drifts on skiers left!

Have fun this weekend kids!

They're not open..

They are reporting Hell's Gate is open....that's odd

 

[deadheadskier]

I don't see how it's possible unless people are allowed to hike up from over in Brackett

You are allowed to hike up the runout trail (Hard Tack on the map) from the backside snowfields to it. Maybe a 5 minute hike

I always thought Hell's Gate needed more snow than some of the areas up top. I guess it's more sheltered from the wind.

It seems to hold snow better then the other "backside chutes" they put on the map last year. They haven't even been able to officially open the others yet.
