I broke a trail up White Pine Canyon in LCC. I was amazed how few cars there were in the parking lot and I needed to break trail from the White Pine-Red Pine junction. We seemed to be the only party in the entire basin. I think people are just tired of skiing so much perfect powder this year, at least I know I have actually muttered it to several friends lately without washing my mouth out with soap. We went up and took three laps on the north-facing Spire gladed trees. It was snowing so hard in the afternoon with some wind so much of the uptrack was already buried. Snow was fabulous powder with about 8 inches from last night plus what was falling today, and it sat on soft settled snow from before last night's snowfall, creating perfect, knee-deep powder. One of the best days of the year, but I've said this several times this season.
