TR: Ebbetts Pass, 5/12/13
Dookey67 met up with me, Mrs. Vets, Makisha and Penny up at Ebbetts Pass on Sunday, May 12th.
On the drive up from the eastside we noticed that a chute we had skied two years ago looked good to go.

While not optimal like it was two years ago, it was still enjoyable and there are still many fun lines to ski there.
