Maybe he just wants to lure everyone into going there during roughest time? Do the opposite, go in December jk : )
I think posts like these should be organized into "Best of.." category. We have too many threads with similar questions. Some get great responses, some are ignored. Posts like this shouldn't be lost in SP mess.
Threads with current conditions are one thing. Threads regarding "What do I bring to Denali/Rainier/Whitney/Tetons/Shasta blah blah blah" is a different story. There are at least ten of these with a variety of info from great to worst. Would be nice to organize it into BEST and maybe include it on Mountain page somewhere. So in order to save these threads from evolving one could be referred to this chunk of info.
Or, one could just go to the "Denali, Rainier, Hood, Shasta," etc. page, and do a bunch of research on their own.
Questions such as these seem inevitable. Same thing occurs on CascadeClimbers every year. It's all ok, though, as it makes for fun and informative reading.
