Comments
Rock solid snow conditions at Ochre Spring slide path. Re-frozen isothermal snow akin to a Lake Louise groomer. Large, size 2 wet slides on the main path and size 1 on the lookers left branch. Days old at least. Skiing was OK to poor. Turned around at TL. Alpine was thin, rocky and heavily wind affected.
