Comments
We skied to the top of Parker Ridge early and then did a couple of laps in the glades. We stayed away from the steep open slopes. The snowpack was deep but thoroughly consolidated with about 4cm on new snow, deeper in sheltered areas of windbourne accumulation. The morning started out cloudy but the sun came out around noon and we quit about 2 pm when the snow became wet and heavy.
