Comments
Biggest 24 hr dump at Shames in a long time. O ground cover the day before on the chair line. 3 cms of slop at 700 m's. (P lot) 30 ish cms at 1000 m's (top chair) 70 + cms at 1100 m's where i ran out of gas before top t with very heavy snow and diving split tips weighing tonnes to lift with every step. Light wind, snowing heavily at times. Lg rumbles from steeps of valley of certain Doom by 13:30 hrs. Able to ride back to tower 7 before clicking the rocks. Deep mud below tower 6.
