Dakota Ridge as of May 5th Current Conditions Tuesday, May 06, 2008
Had a glorious corn snow ski on the Ridge. Huge quantities of snow. We went up after lunch so that the snow had a chance to get to perfect Spring conditions. Best in years in full sun. I am sure that it will be perfect next weekend as well provided the sun shines. Found my hubcap lost a month ago. Michael

17 degres on Cypress today so Dakota and Tet will be too Current Conditions Thursday, May 15, 2008
Big Melt will be starting up top Conditions could be changing fast on our mountains. Use extra caution and make sure if you are out in the snow you are sure what is underneath you. Any frozen lakes in mountains may be at high danger risk of breaking through. Snow bridges may not be safe for Crossing. And trails and snow could be unstable. Be prepared for anything. Instant Summer temps could cause some problems. Have fun and if you go up make a report here when you come down. Kind of nice to have some current info. Be safe
