报名1人。天气好就去。

领导啊，不会就咱们两个吧？我可没本事开那么远的路。

是那年咱们去停在滑雪场那，然后走到Artist point, 向上又走了没多远的地方吗？

记得当时看要是走这条Trail,一开始就要过Ｔａｂｌｅ　ＭＴ　下的那个斜坡。

这条Ｔｒａｉｌ　几乎在山脊上走，晴天的话风光一直都不错，咱们也没必要非走到头，是吧？

Always wanna to head over to Mt Baker but can't take a chance this time. Will try out new insole and test drive it at the North Shore mountain this Sunday. Coz I wanna to join the Easter Weekend trip! Have fun.

I thought you MUST use passport to cross the border starting this year! Better make sure.

这个人动摇军心，未战先退。需重责40大板！

数年前在冬天走过此路：滑雪停车场到Artist point一段大约1。5小时路程，毫无难度。从Artist point真正进入Ptarmigan Ridge的小径后，因为是在半山的斜面上横走，而当时雪上太斜，根本就无法开出一条‘路’来。所以只前进了500米就放弃了。你们的能力比我好，希望你们能更进一步吧。

打完英子40大板之后，我必须指出：问题不是有没有必要非走到头。而是根本走不到头。

不过即使走不到头，冬天走一次这条路也是很好的经历。

我们上次去的是Kulshan Ridge，很短较易...

这次到Artist Point向西再向西南....走多少是多少
主要难的那段就是Table下那段的斜坡,但估计天气好，应该会有不少到Ptarmigan Ridge玩的，说不准我们去时路已经开好了:wink: 我们带冰镐。

备用方案：就去我们North Shore的Brunswick Mountain or Mt. Windsor

Thanks for the reminder, hope you can join us soon :lol:


FYI:

Identification is necessary for travel between the United States and Canada. Due to heightened security all travelers are encouraged to travel with a passport if available. Beginning January 31, 2008, U.S. and Canadian citizens 19 years and older who enter the U.S. at land and sea ports will need to present government issued photo ID, such as a driver’s license as proof of identity, along with proof of citizenship, such as a birth certificate or naturalization certificate, or a passport. Children age 18 and under will be able to enter with proof of citizenship, no photo ID required.

email reply I got from a friend(SAR member) about the snow condition there

Hi Gloria,
I reviewed the synopisis for  Saturday and due to average temps and winds, both sides of the ridge are affected in different ways. Norht and Northeast slopes and bowls will loaded in the morrning from Wind and the south sides cornices and slopes of Ptarmigan would be affeccted in the afternoon by sun. Because the area has good visibility for veiwing along the route, you will be able to see any evidence and will hear some whumping or cracking in the morning if there is a problem. Stay well back from the cornices in the afternoon on return and watch them when passing underneath. By the time you are in the NE bowl, it should have settled. Keep a straight line up vertical slopes and distance between parties.
Talk to ski patrol while you are up there and probably some skiers will be in the area before or at the same time as you, so the area should see a lot people travelling and you will be able to get a good feel for the terrain. Even if you don't go the full distance you should be able to go quite a ways.
Take care

I'm little worrying about tonight's weather in MT Baker area.

"
After a few beautiful days of sunshine, it looks like the clouds are moving back in. Forecasts are calling for 5 to 8 inches of snowfall for Saturday and freezing levels to drop to 2,000 feet.
"

In this forecast report, freezing level drops to 1200ft (366 m)

If there is new snow tonight, is our car ok to go that high to parking lot?

Even though the road condition is good, it's still dangerous with snow and ice.
