Comments
Spent the day in the Chuting Gallery (tree skiing on south side of Disease ridge).
Conditions for turns: Excellent!
Conditions for trailbreaking: Challenging!
Skied from approximately 2000m to 1760m. Snow is deep so steeper terrain was important. No evidence of wind effect in the glades once below treeline. A few rocks still just below the surface at treeline. Depth at ~1800m was 125cm.
Great start to the season.
