Splittie Daydreamin' - Thielsen

I went down to Ashland mid-week to visit friends and could not help but stop on my way down and take a gander at Thielsen.  The skies were crystal clear and Thielsen was beaming.

The challenge is to time it such that the approach is feasible....mid winter and it would be a longgggg slog to the base through deep snow...it seems like a Spring approach would be ideal - you could perhaps hike part of the way in and then find the right slope/conditions to play on.  The longer daylight hours would be an added bennie in having a little more wiggle room relative to finding the right beta.
