This was my first pit of the season and I have to say the sound of trickling snow melt from both the snow pack and surrounding snow that hung on trees was reminiscent of a late March or April day. Needless to say I am hopeful that the continued warm temps and high pressure will allow our persistent weak layer to heal. Hopefully this is the silver lining of our early December thaw and then we will get the snow we have all been waiting for! Until then riding conditions are kind of fun and spongy up high and manky and spring like down low.
