Description
We will go to the Table Mountain area near Mt. Baker ski area. The plan is to drive up to Heather Meadows parking lot, skin up to Artists’ Point or Herman’s Saddle and see what the conditions are. The timing of the storm is a bit uncertain but the weather should be improving through out the day. Storm slabs are forecasted for all aspects so the skiing will be limited to short runs and there will be likely time to do snow profiles and practice with avalanche beacons.
If you are planning to take your car make sure you have snow tires and chains.
Bring passport or Nexus card.
