ski guyTIME FOR TUCKERMAN RAVINE
April 26th 2010 13:35
It's the time of year, once again, where hardcore eastern United
States skiers and snowboarders make the trek to Tuckerman
Ravine high atop New Hampshire's Mount Washington.
Now that all the lift-served eastern U.S. ski areas have thrown
in the towel for the season, skiers and riders are literally earning
their turns by making the strenuous hike up Mount Washington
to drop down the steep Tuckerman Ravine Headwall.
Latest snow conditions indicate a seventeen inch base depth
with little avalanche danger. However, falling ice danger is
high particularly in the vicinity of the infamous "Lunch Rocks."
Later in the week, rain and perhaps snow near the Mount
Washington awaits intrepid skiers and riders.
