Comments
Skied the treed shoulder of Storm Mtn opposite Chickadee Valley - saw nobody else on the east side of the valley despite multiple vehicles parked to access Chickadee.
Between 8-20cm fresh snow over a generally supportive midpack made for good turns, especially in the middle of the runs as breakable crust formed higher on SW aspects. Mixed sun and cloud all day with intermittent precip.
