Comments

Lots of activity mid-mountain today: a number of whumpfs, results on tiny slopes, Size 1s and even a remote triggered size 1. Results on all aspects, especially touchy in lee-ward and on solar aspects. Started to become more stubborn by the end of the day but Whumpfing right up to 2pm. I’ll post videos on Instagram: @brentskibikeski
