Lovely first day out of the season. We started skiing from the hwy. The trail breaking was generally knee deep so it was slower going. Ridge top skiing was really good deep dry pow!! If you slowed down you were going to wallow/swim your way down the slopes… lol!! We had/saw no signs of avy activities. We skied off the top of Peak 5205 over a convex north facing roll. With this being the real start to the islands base things were bottom less, tree wells very present and thoughtful skiing feel important while navigating dense trees and clearcuts. Overall great time out!
