Here's a look at what's left of the Palmer Snowfield after the lackluster season. Hopefully the West can get a decent snow year so we can continue to see summer skiing.

Yup OP, all the snow is gone and there will never be summer skiing again there.

Also, the obligatory "Oh it's this thread again"

Didn't we already hash this out 3 or 4 times this summer?

Oh! It's sad that it goes away. But still there's lot of great mountain that will never bring you down this time though.
