Comments

Start of the uptrack after leaving the valley remains unpleasant with icy and slippery sections with large sections destroyed by people slipping. After the first 150m the track improves especially if you traverse lookers right. The remainder of the up track is in great condition.

Deep powder in the upper sections of the run with little wind effect. Small point releases noted coming off rocky features on southern aspects of video and dispatchers bowl.

We essentially rode beautiful deep powder until the lower section of Ursus trees where you began to feel the rain crust from last Saturday in a chewed up mogulish exit.
