Report from May 18, 2023 Brought to you by Mono County Tourism Chasing Connery Lundin down “Wineglass Couloir” yesterday was a blast! Yesterday, we went for a fun chute after scaring ourselves a bit on Tuesday’s very steep “Pete’s Dream.” Wineglass Couloir is 2,800 vertical feet! It also isn’t freezing at night, so Wineglass Couloir’s NW aspect was perfect. This line […]

Trip Report: 12,048′ Tuck No – La Sal Mountains, UT

  Report from Tuesday, May 16, 2023 12,400′ Mount Tukuhnikivatz, A Fifty Classic Ski Descent, has a little sister right next door that ain’t so little. Her name is Tuck No and she’s arguably just as good—if not better—than the classic around the corner. Steep, jagged, and avalanche-prone, she’s not a mountain to be messed with at any time of […]

Report from May 10, 2023 Brought to you by Mono County Tourism 4:45am alarm clock. Blue Danube by Johan Strauss II (because it’s such a beautiful song, it hurts a little less to wake up so early). We left the house at 5:30 and headed due south for 13,005′ Mt. Morgan, CA. The roads are still buried in snow here so […]
