An excellent ski to Hale today in the snow. The herd path is clear and featured a couple inches of super light fluff. North Twin Trail was about the same up to the Firewardens split, where snow depths increased to 6+ and kept on going, upwards of a foot of new snow on the summit. The ski down was fantastic, some places had 2+ feet of powder to play in, a descent to remember. Coming out was slow in the still falling snow. Great time out with Mike. |
