Pretty nice coverage and looked like great snow. Talk about hitting it just right for an early ski.
Incredible lower shot there. Any more photos of the area?
Any signs of a vent coming through the underlying ice. I was reminded this past week while in Oregon and California, that we do have active volcanoes and that they often vent on quite far away f...
Going there next weekend, hope the snow holds.Dr. Telemark
