January 11, 2017, Mount Kalama 2.0

It's been almost three years since Mount Kalama has been "in."  Here is the link to the last trip report: http://www.turns-all-year.com/skiing_snowboarding/trip_reports/index.php?topic=30665.0

More moisture in the snow this time around allowed for two new faces to be skied. Every bit as satisfying as the 2014 trip.
