RIP Palmer Glacier

[brotherdad]

Here's a look at what's left of the Palmer Snowfield after the lackluster season. Hopefully the West can get a decent snow year so we can continue to see summer skiing.

snow underneath the dirt

This is the secret.

Yup OP, all the snow is gone and there will never be summer skiing again there.

Also, the obligatory "Oh it's this thread again"

Didn't we already hash this out 3 or 4 times this summer?

 

[Holte]

Still unskiable though no?

Not with that attitude it's not.

Get your shovel!

I'm still praying for some freakish storm but yeah we'll probably have to wait a while

Oh! It's sad that it goes away. But still there's lot of great mountain that will never bring you down this time though.
