Had 5 skiers came down and were very nice, then a set of 2 came down right on top of us blasting snow right in our faces, I threw a snowball (because I could not reach a rock) right at one of the sons of bitches. good climbing though
A long snow climb, very continuous and great. We chose the option to top out where Dead Dog tops out at the Kelso Ridge. Great day, and perfect weather.
Summited Emperor with an exit through one of the left hand gulleys(topped out right at Dead Dog). Snow was in decent shape for the climb, never too steep. Skied down NW face on windslab and crust until 12K. Got 1K of good spring corn in.
