Great layer of dust on top of the groomers to start the day at the shoe . There were even several inches in some of the spots that get the benefit of the wind deposit along the edges of the slopes.99 + knot bumper had some deeper snow as they were left ungroomed!
Rumor of about a foot of natural snow on the ground and close to a 1/2 ft in the last 24 hr . on top of that .The hunt was on . Heck of a good day on the snow. Lee side of the ridge currently has mostly about 1 to 2 ft deep of snow cover in the favored areas
Following the wind the goods were found. Peaks of sunshine and snowshowers through out the day.
Beautiful WVA powder
Certainly not wide open glades like Tahoe and Ninja skills must be administered .
its a treat to live in the south near the beach and get in the car drive about 4 hours and have surface conditions like this!
Wild and Wonderful.
Interesting find.
Here's a short teaser clip .Tough to hold a cam and bob + weave the branches. Tons of fun out there though Best runs of the day were when the camera was at rest in the pocket but certainly always fun to have clips to go back and look at!.
