My extended DV stay

I expect to have the ice axe out well into august this year, wich I dont mind, snow is way superior to scree.

Ha, I agree with that sentiment! I usually do a summer rotation of July in Montana (lower peaks melt out first)
, August in the eastern Sierra, and September in Washington - coast and south Cascades. I pushed the first two back one and two weeks respectively, though, due to massive snow. I heard that the Tioga Pass road may not open until July.
