Comments
Very variable conditions. Highly aspect dependent; hiding from the wind produced superior riding conditions. ALP & ATL were near whiteout. BTLprovided some refuge and delivered the best conditions for riding, but not toolow where we experienced firm damp snow overlaid with recent storm snow. Recent storm coverage was not complete enough to provide consistent lines. Wind transported pockets were too touchy to ride confidently.
