Another blue bird day in the winds. Windy though- and the wind was coming out of an unusual direct (north to northeast). It pretty much hammered all of our stashes. You can almost always count on good snow on Go-Lite and similar aspects, but not today. The wind pretty much hammerd it. It was soft, but slabby. Even the stuff in the trees was heavy... not as bad... but not the light fluffy pow-pow we were hoping for. Oh well. We made the best of it. Did a big tour of the areas instead.

Mandy throws in a turn up high.

The snow was better lower.


Wish the whole Mt was like this.

Finding a place to drop from further down the ridge.

In the background, you can see a line that I was very interested in. Everyone was out of gas though for today. So... it'd have to wait. It's on my list now though.
