yeah, it was a ski cut. the surface under it was very slick but it wasn't ice. should have taken a look but wouldn't be surprised to find a suncrust with graupel on it. more concerning we...
i just really want to ski the crater. like inside it. :)
that moon is nearly bright enough to make night corn possible :)
i was thinking of this for the 12th but was afraid of traffic needing to use the mountain loop to get to darrington. is this still the case? how was the drive?
