| Comments: |
Last earned snowboard turns of the season for me - I had to walk half the vertical for some turns. Only continuous turns were on Profile and Rocket. Snow on Profile was sun-cupped. I waited at LEAST a half hour dubbing around the summit waiting for the ski trails to soften. Eventually they did, but, it was difficult to avoid bumpiness. Still, better than a day sitting on the couch binge-watching Survivor. I will tuck the splitboard into bed for a few LONG months. :( |
