Comments

Skied Blowdown today. Wet snow below 1750m. Heavy powder above 1750m. Snow above 1750m skied good. About 20cm of new snow on top of old melt/freeze layer. Had a few large whumphs around 2000m so turned around. Ps: there is minimal coverage below 1500m, I wouldn’t want to be on anything that isn’t a road.
