Comments

Probably our final tour into the fantail area for this season. Creeks are opening up and water is starting to show in areas. The snowpack was starting to go isothermic towards end of the day and you go straight to the bottom of the snowpack, which made things exciting.

The riding was overall good w wet pow to be had for most of the ride.

Hopefully the sun comes out so we can go ride some higher elevation alpine slopes.
