We went out to the Entiat Range this weekend, where the signs of an eventful winter/spring and a warm summer are both highly evident.

From various suggestions I made besides the Interglacier, the rowdy boys among our group picked out the NF Maude as particularly intriguing. Meanwhile, I would haul in a bunch of camp luxuries, sleep in (failed), and take pictures of beautiful ladies mostly carrying skis around in beautiful valleys (skied a lap north from Spider Gap)

I can't really reminisce about Maude, but you can, so here ya go:

That first one is particularly classic, classic Ben Manfredi, as vivid and classic as the day it was written. (Others are even more qualified than I am to say so.) Didn't happen on this trip due reportedly to postholey warm/soft conditions, but may it be sent in classic style again soon
