Comments
Spent the day vision questing in the blowing snow, breaking trail the whole way. Almost all past days ski tracks have disappeared. Moderate winds gusting to strong from ESE. Eastern facing slopes were an interesting mix of surfy wind board, punchy wind board and deep wind drifted snow. Windloaded pockets were reactive, got quite a few E-facing mini features to fail by stepping on them.
