--Great Fall weather in the Pacific Northwest over the weekend lead to a number of successful ascents. This party party found good conditions on the Southwest Couloir of South Early Winter Spire. However, it sounds like the approach included some difficulties. This party climbed Mount Saint Helens and found people taking pictures of a woman in a bikini on the summit...which is weird.
--There is some snow in the mountains, not much, but some. And with any type of snow come the backcountry skiers. This party skied the Coleman Pinnacle. This party found poor ski conditions on Mount Adams.
