There was 8″ of fresh frosting delivered in this overnight installment. The inch at The Trailer was dripping wet, so I knew the new product up on the hill was going to be a bit more dense than previous days. The consistency was best when untracked, which felt floaty and smooth, but as the medium got worked over, it required much more power to blast through. The Peruvian Gulch opened after mitigation efforts had been completed, which offered fresh lines to get after The Gad Valley had seen all the traffic.
As the day progressed the harbor chop began to rise as the faithful worked the lines. I was slowing the roll and took a round approach to each turn. Tomorrow, expect a bit of Sun and much better visibility. The Groomers should be epic, but the off trail will be becoming stiffer with traffic. Look for more to open that has been waiting in the wings. The coverage is getting better by the day, but there are some steep, high traffic areas that may present some variable features as they get worked. It should be warming up a tad. IBBY!!!
