A Basin - Tues., Apr 21. 2015

[Lostinthetrees]

A Basin did not suck today :-)
6 - 12 inches of pow fell overnight on a soft base (created by steady incremental snowfall over the past 5 days). Windows of blue sky between puffy cumulus clouds made for a great visuals. Hopped cornices several times off Cornice Run in the AM. Excellent BBQ platter fed 2 w/ sides of "killer" baked beans and waffle fries washed down w/ lemonade. Great value for the dollar. Played around the boulders and in the gullies below the East Wall Traverse after lunch.

Rock hoppin' before heading into the gullies.

PLENTY of elbow room! Good vibes from all in attendance. Parking lot hummin' in the sunshine after the goods had been mowed down. Will be back next week.
