  • Part two of the Northern Presidential tour from Feb 21, 2017. Traversed over to the summit of Mount Jefferson from Adams eastern snowfields and skied down to the base of Jefferson Ravine via Stealth Gully. Followed up with a run down the Jefferson Headwall (Zig-Zag), back up Stealth and over to "Hamstring Chute" which slid recently (Irene 2011?). Jefferson reliably has good snow late into spring so it's worth a tour even into May.

    Just catching this in 2020. Your skiing through Hamstring Chute was impeccable my guy. Real tight line, sick though. Cheers

    Wow. You are an excellent skier dude!
    I would be too afraid of loosing a ski or kicking off an avalanche to do that.
    Great video! Thanks for posting.

      passeporturbain solid. I was cautious on Hamstring because of the big crown but it was fairly old. Plenty of debris at the bottom though. This was at the tail end of our 3 week run of amazing skiing in Feb - this day hit 38°F on the summit and was t-shirt weather below treeline.

      2-3 hours to Hermit Lake. Another 1.5-2 hours to the top of the bowl depending on the line you choose.
      Check out Time for Tuckerman for a good hiking and descent guide. Best go with a buddy if its your first time.
