The last ski day of the season - one of the best days I’ve ever had in the mountains.

Early morning reflection on Squaw Lake

---

Cathedral Peak

---

Deep Lake

---

Starting up now - the east peak of Daniel visible

---

Snow sliding off the rock slabs

---

Mount Stuart behind

---

Looking back at the basin we came up

---

I’ve seen this dog before on South Sister and Adams haha, funny how you can recognize a dog

---

The vast snow slopes looking at the other Daniel summits

---

Venus Lake (covered in snow), Spade Lake, Mount Rainier

---

Bears Breast slabs doesn’t hit the same with snow on them

---

Looking over at the snow slopes of Hinman. We abandoned the idea of doing the circumnav of Daniel and tagging Hinman to prioritize ski quality.

---

Pea Soup Lake just starting to melt

---

Venus Lake

---

---

---

Onto the Lynch Glacier

---

---

---

---

Second lap on this north facing run, probably the best corn + position combo I’ve skied

---

---

---

Even this last east facing run was superb and surprisingly not overcooked

---

Jump the glide crack

---

---

One last climb up this gulley

---

Peggy’s Pond

Notes

• This was probably ~23 miles and ~12000 feet of vertical gain in a little under 14 hours.
