Comments
Comments: Out for a Saturday ski tour to take advantage of whatever is left from the storm. Snow is spotty below 1000ft, becomes more consistent past that, and there is deep coverage over 2k feet. Partner was in snowshoes the entire time, but the snow was firm enough that you could do microspikes if you don't care about preserving the trail.

For skiers- Snowfields were great, glades were great until the runout. Past that, you are survival skiing or walking.
