A most excellent day of boot-top to knee-deep pow. And, sun.

Heard from patrol that the C-6 part arrived today. He wasn't told a much beyond that but it sounded like the saturday "scheduled" opening was more concrete than the Dec 1 opening of the Gondola. Good news as 6 and Southback will be in prime shape. The few hikers today barely scratched Powder Bowl.

There was thigh deep in the powder bowl but sluffing heavily. Great turns.

How can you tell that its thigh deep when you are on that steroid induced lunch tray ???

So chair 6 and south back are going to be closed all week only to get opened up for us weekend warriors to slay fresh pow? Kinda like the Hurricane Ridge Road. I think they should have this practice on a regular basis.
