    Most definately, last turns under the full moon were some of the best of the season so far. But...it was right after a foot and a half of new snow.

    should've gotten out last night. Sweet full moon. Cloudy tonight. Looking for Thursday night to get some full moon turns. Moonrise will be around 7:30 or so. High pressure supposed to build in on Thursday so there will be some moon light pow gotten.

    When I lived in Vail we would head up to the pass for FullMoon turns. Great place to make them if the conditions are right.

    Thumbs up

    got a bunch of turns in thigh deep the past two nights under the moon and crystal clear skies. Probably the highlight of the 3 1/2 day 10th mountain hut trip. Fun stuff. Kinda spooky too seeing shadows dance down the white blanket.
