Coalpit in the morning
In case ya wanted to try Tanners
Skied into Dry Creek from the shoulder of Pfeifferhorn. Softening crust was timely at 10 am.
Hopin' for a run on Box Elder, making it up on the shoulder.
Equipment failure so I...
Shallow wet slide initiated with a ski cut in upper Red Pine at 3pm.
North facing hadn't cooked down. Slide is looker's left in the photo.
Ski penetration was an inch or two. Boot penetration 10" or so. Stayed the same into the afternoon.
Slush lingers under the surface refreeze. Below about 9k, it was slow skiing.
There'd be corn if it cooled down and skies were clear.
