Eastern Sierra Backcountry Skiing Conditions Update

2024-05-11  |  Bloody Couloir, Rock Creek 

The Eastern Sierra has some good snow right now, but it's a little harder to track down than it was last week.  The snow is changing for the better, the #MaytheForthBeWithYou storm added a new layer to contend with and that's been tougher to divine.

Our team's this week have been guiding backcountry skiing up and down the Eastern Sierra hunting for the best lines and best snow.  With guides still in the field, we're waiting on some more updates on conditions, but we'll post those shortly.  For now, we've got pictures with locations and dates!
