Middle Mountain Cirque

Friday I walked into Warner Lake Campground to see how much snow we still had up at the campground and I could see the glorious northeast face of Tuk baking in the spring sun so we headed out early Saturday to go and check it out.

The forecast had called for warm temps and some wind, but as we skinned into Middle Mountain Cirque the high clouds kept the long run off Tuk from corning up. So we turned around before going all the way up and skiied the breakable crust ( I mostly skidded and rolled down ) until we got to the lower elevation where things softened up and became turnable.
