| Comments: |
Broke out trail to and across glades section, which was cut up by skiers earlier in day. But, because it was late in the day, did not see any skiers, followed glades ski entrance route to Vista Way, as I was tired; found that the entrance had rope across its top. Easy snow shoe to top on south side of Vista Way. Route not recommended as is illegal. Fun ski down Upper Cannon, JC Killy Bypass, and Avalanche. Added another pm ascent and after sunset summit to my March grid. New snow depths about 10-12 inches, with some deeper drifts. |
