Anyone here ski (or board) Kratka or Waterman?
Are there any other abandoned resorts I didnt mention?

Search and Rescue is also out looking for a missing hiker that's overdue since last night. Not much of a description though. About 5'4", Korean lady.

Hey Bruno, I may have passed by you today. I hiked up Register Ridge and then down the normal Sierra Hut trail. I was surprised by how little snow was up there today (but as you say, it may be changing right now). I didn't hear anything about the Korean. Here’s some photos

Regarding the missing Korean woman. It’s seems strange that if she went missing on Sat, I didn’t see any SAR activity on Sunday. I drove thru Baldy village around~12:30 and didn’t see any search activities getting started at either the ranger station or fire station. Anyhow, glad to hear they got the SAR started and I’m hoping for the best. Here’s news link:
