During the outing, Prof. Milnor Roberts edited the Daily Slush, which included a "consummately scientific" article entitled, "Erratic Movements Observed in the Constellation of Skis." There is no mention of who the skiers were. Dean Roberts was also master of ceremonies at the special program the last evening. The article includes a complete list of the participants.

"The scene was beyond description--a panorama in white, sparkling in the starlight, dotted here by trees, streaked there by wind-swept ridges; the graceful Tatoosh Range on one hand and the majestic monarch of the region on the other. The numberless stars, seemingly nearer than ever, were soon joined by the great full moon, rising from behind Stevens Peak, intensifying the beauties of a scene already impressive beyond description, the recollections of which must always arouse emotions of reverence and inspiration."

Sixty-eight Mountaineers and guests signed up. Most walked to Longmire, but two sleighloads chose to ride. The following day, the entire party made it to Paradise in six hours. Charles Hazlehurst arrived later, having made the entire trip from Ashford to Paradise that day. There was a moment of silence that evening in memory P.B. Van Trump, one of the first men to climb Mt Rainier, whose death had been learned that day. The Mountaineers were the first guests of the new Paradise Inn.

Over the next two days, parties ventured to Sluiskin Falls, Cowlitz Rocks, McClure Rock and Camp Muir. It was the first time Camp Muir had been reached on snowshoes and one of the first visits in winter. The new stone hut was full of drifted snow. Party members not making these trips spent the days tobogganing, snowshoeing, and skiing on the lower slopes of Alta Vista behind the Inn. On the last day the party hiked to Ashford in 7-1/2 hours. The author describes Paradise Valley as "a new Mecca for winter sports."
