Comments
Skinned up to the alpine on Metal Dome. Notice lots of whumpfing in the sub-alpine before reaching the alpine. Didn't continue to summit as viz was poor and little snow and wind blown in alpine rocky areas. Riding quality in trees was heavy but fun. Should be in good shape after this next storm cycle.
