How insane would it be for someone to make a trip of it from Michigan to do Tuckerman Ravine?
I know I can't fit it in this year, with all the other plans I have in my hopper, but I'd love to put this on my bucket list, but somehow, I think its Nuts!

I just saw this! I plan on doing it some year. Maybe you can join us?

Insert obligatory WM quote here.

Hopefully I can get out, although this time of year is crazy with work/professional exams. Will depend on weather, workload, and mental state.

Don't hold it against her, she seems like she may be ok.

I'm just shocked, is all. A good friend of mine that I lost touch with a while back is from Troy.

I know, I know. Just not ready yet. Maybe next year? Wouldn't want to get in over my head. That's how people get hurt, KWIM?

WTFYTA?

What don't you get? I keep hurting myself because I've done things I wasn't ready for. Not going to jump into that again. When I have the skills, I will go to Tux.

And there's nothing wrong with going to the base of the headwall... checking out the place, and skiing down the sherb

Damn, warming up on Washington. It's been in the teens and low 20s for the last couple of weeks, even when it hit 70 here in NJ. All of the sudden today it's hitting 50 deg.

I'm guessing the lower half of the Sherburne will melt out the next few days..:sad:

Sure hope not, hopefully temps will go back down. Last year went in May and Sherburne was closed, that's why this year I planned for April. The temp has been dropping, so hope it's just a one day fluke.
