EARLY ARRIVAL

3-29-21 by dave

That predicted cold front made an early arrival, moving in shortly before the opening bell, dropping the temps really fast. With no time for softening, the pack was crispy and firm on all sides of the hill. Light precip began and the visibility went south as the front moved through. Off trail was not offering much in the way of relief, as the warmth of preceding days had morphed even the High North aspects.

Spring time freeze thaw making the surfaces crystalize. Good to let it soften in the Sun.

Tomorrow, look for a still cold morning, with partly cloudy skies, which will really slow any softening of the pack. The Groomers will be the place to be with the fresh till offering the best surface to get traction. The North facing aspects will offer the best quality, but lower on the hill expect very crispy surfaces. Look to Mineral to offer the earliest softening possibilities with what morning Sun may be happening. Dress for cold as temps will be quite nippy. IBBY!!
