My apologies to the list, but my mail is not going thru to Mara for some reason.

Hi Mara...
 
Rainier was snowy up high and VERY WET down low.  I had a fabulous time though.  Tested all of my new PCT gear.  What a way to give it a test run!
 
About 1 foot of new snow above 6500 feet.....  maybe 6 inches above 6,000 feet, and only an inch or two above 5400 feet.
 
I am still planning to go up North and check out the trail on Wednesday.  I'll definitely let you know what I find out.
 
Feel free to call me, although, it is hard to pin me to a phone (smiles)

Hi Terri,

How was it on Rainier this weekend? I am driving myself crazy trying 
to decide when to leave and what to do. If you don't mind, I may give 
you a call early to middle of this week and ask you a couple of 
questions and your opinion. I just wish I still lived in Seattle then 
I could go out and see the conditions with my own eyes......

I hope I am still on your passenger list for June 2nd. My husband is 
really sick with some intestinal bug (he has had diarrhea for 3 days 
straight!) so he may not join me after all. I don't think we can leave 
his car at Hart's pass if the snow doesn't melt faster and we don't 
have a ride anyway so that plan may fail....

Thanks,
Mara
