Loads of snow in Burridges now! 165cm where we changed over about 2/3 of the way up the glade. 100cm in open meadows at the bottom. The fluffy snow from the storm is already settling and quite dense but great riding. Worth noting, there was a significant crust layer on top caused by some freezing rain for the first half of the skin in - especially in open spaces. Once we crossed the river and into the gulch it was gone, but if other nearby areas had the same isolated freezing rain last night, it would make for poor riding. We were skeptical on the way in but snow quality improved dramatically.
