Hell no! It was a little firm in spots, but overall, the conditions were tits. A nice, mostly unfrozen, snow-pack underneath with about 4 inches of new snow. Blower in spots made it yet another non-spring like day. Of course it snowed off and on for both days. Although the very bottom “slushed out” a little, most of the mountain was sickter…at least I thought so.
After Long Board morning, we soon changed clothes and headed to Thunder Bowl, the Spur, skied Norms, Waterfall, Oops a couple times, and then called it a day.
MUSIC: Chemical Brothers - 'Let Forever Be'
Thunder bowl – I’m the spec on the top of the pic….above “slash chute”
Middle of Slash Chute – Smally and I hit it up from the skier’s right entrance. Not to straightline it, but to actually make some turns. 90 % winter snow prevailed, and I liked it.
The one in the middle...
Only if it was 5,000 ft of more vert...
Carson Spur – Smally keeping it real
Greydon – knee down and locked.
Dave – figuring out how to link turns and manage wet slough in the “mank”

Good pictures and TR for sure. I've learned what to expect from you know 666, and this is right up your alley. CHAMP!
You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig.

The only bad thing about this past weekend was the flat-light. Although it probably held up the snow better, it stuck around for both days.
