Friday, St Patty's Day eve 3/16/17

Post by Mister Moose »

Another 6 inches according to the mountain, and fairly light. We're getting trained to expect at least a little something every morning now.

And I have photos which I might get around to posting, but how many ways can you dish up untracked fields of white and cottony soft moguls?

The differences today were the usual Friday bump, K1 was 30 minutes late so Snowdon got trampled faster than usual, the sun actually made an appearance, and Conclusion delivered a great last run in spite of the triple running with it in full view.

ROTD: wherever you went. It's a 10.0 out there. There have been deeper storms, but not a day after day run like this.

Best bets would be Moguls and/or Lookout but I'd call and ask.

Fluffy marshmallows and cottony clouds.
4 days of bell to bell and I still can't enough.
Amazing how Conclusion held up into the afternoon.

Inn at Long Trail / McGrath's Irish Pub. You'll probably have to pry yourself in with a crowbar though.

Afternoon Report: Another fantastic one out there today folks although I could offer that it was not quite as good as Thursday (the deep, off-map woods snow was a bit more settled in). Don't get me wrong, the deep pow in the woods is still fantastic.

ROTD: Low Rider is the best I've seen it in many years. Several runner ups for ROTD.

Stash woods and other woods in the Needle's Eye area is where I spent first part of my day. Leaving trails (Stitchline, etc.) for the weekend.

Skye Hawk is really good and coupled with Vertigo -> Stairs was right up there for ROTD honors.

Took a lap over to Rams Head for Twister woods and was not disappointed.

Etc. Etc
