Kendall Knob - 2.12.2009
rodman's GPS route from a 2004 snowshoe trip... take exit 54 on I-90 and park in the Gold Creek Sno-park (2600') on the east side of I-90.
|
Ski FS 9090... in a mile or so you get a partial view of Keechelus Lake.
|
Just before turning up valley I got this view of Ski Acres before skiing into the void.
|
Very limited views where FS 9090 meets the Kendall Lakes Trailhead... also severe flood damage here from Kendall Creek.
|
Skiing back down on 5 inches of fluffy stuff will be fun.
|
After skiing 3 miles and gaining 1700 feet of elevation I get this view of frozen trees at the high point (4280+) on Kendall Knob.
|
On my return to the car the sunshine starts to hit the Snoqualmie Pass ski area.
|
The sun is trying... probably waiting to show itself when I get back to the car.
|
Yep... plenty of sun near the parking lot.
|
The avalanche area at Hyak... the chair-lift post in the middle of the photo is leaning... then a couple of posts below it are missing.
