Myself and a friend are looking at riding up at Hatchers Pass, has anyone been up there lately? The report says 36"-46" of base plus all this new snow we got in the last week and a half. How's the riding up that way?

Just got back form Hatchers. Lots of new snow, maybe 12" to 18" of new powder on top of the harder stuff. Only road for 2 hours due to lack of visibility. Flat light, snowing hard, and low clouds made for a tough day. Should be great riding once it clears up some. Only saw one recent avalanche, but didn't spend much time up high since the visibility was worse up there. I wouldn't say it was the worst avalanche conditions in 10 years (but Hatchers is never a place I feel very comfortable). Was up there a year or two ago and every drainage and hillside had a fresh pile of snow at the bottom. Biggest danger will be the hidden rocks and the deep holes in the creek beds from the recent warm spell.
