seriously good day. best so far of 2011.
Some good skiing to be had out there today. With the right side up snow we didn't feel much of a bottom on N, NE aspects.

quite the party out there this morning, i'd go as far as calling it SUPERIOR. if you weren't there then you missed one for the ages, a new rival to the high boy. 3000 face shots. i'm sure its still good out, so go get it. i'll just blog about the last two mornings of dawn patrols from my office cause i'm way too hardcore to ski with the geeks in the daylight :)
It snowed enough to start from the valley, and boy was it nice.
Here's some pictures of Mark harvesting the goods before sundown.

So Alecs and I made the most of it in 'Urban Days Fork' :biggrin: Can't think of many places in the world that could have a scene like this.

The Crow's Tail was pretty spooky at the base. Had several cracks shoot out under me. I'm fairly confident it was failing on surface hoar due to the creek nearby. However stability increased rapidly as we got higher up the chute. I dug a pit at 8k and was very pleased to find no significant weak layers and that the rain crust was breaking up nicely.

And from today....
Behold the granite nipple! There were several cool knob problems on this boulder. Too bad I didn't bring my climbing shoes

Upper coalpit 4 was sublime. However the lower section desperately needs a big avy to fill it in.
