Wow!! 40 plus of fresh in t bar land. Snow to the p lot 😃 skins down rt out of the truck. Lots of people around for the opening of back country season. Snowing all day. >= 2 cm's/hr at times. Hard work to put in a track with knee to thigh deep skinning. Little wind. No whumphs with occasional cracks around your split at times. No slabs seen but multiple big rumbles from Valley of Doom in afternoon. Not many turns made but straight lines with fluff all up over you. Classic Shames day where everything got wet right down to your skivvies. Full on backseat driving to get down the tee and chair lines as the powtatoes emerg with descent and deep airpockets in the shrubberies suck you down. Full on thigh burner kind of day.
