Comments

Due to poor visibility and deep snow, we were quite limited in terrain we could ride. While this was a small bit of terrain beside the road, it is indicative of the current snowpack in the area. We failed to take photos, but we saw a crown line of a recent avalanche in terrain near us. Long of the short, it's snowing heavily and the snowpack is reactive.
