Comments
Cold day climbing Rowe summit. -29° at parking lot, it felt warmer on top. Riding conditions were good with 20-50cm of fresh, light powder depending on what the wind has blown sitting on top of the hard crust. Some shallow shooting cracks at higher elevations, aside from difficulties holding a skin track on the steeper sections that didn’t have as much snow on top of the crust, everything felt stable for us today.
