Nice! Thanks for the pics. How much walking before you reached skiable snow?

Not much at all. This time of year there's an opportunity to drive a high clearance 4wd rode to within a few minute walk before you're skinning, then booting to the top.

Glad to hear you're still shredding away in WA!

Nice photos! We don't have squat for snow in oregon right now. How steep is it in there?

Yeah, we need mucho nieve as well, but at least Bloody was holding. Not too steep, generally low-to-mid 40's, but the top turn or two can be a tad steeper...really after that is eases off though. A total Eastern Sierra Classic for sure.
