Summer trail up to where the ridge ends right around 5400.

lapped the 2500 ft vertical descent on the west aspects, so good! 

2-3" of powder on a very solid crust.

amazing spring skiing in the burn out area, shenanigan's ensued on the egress, as always the Teanaway came through.

Did you start skinning from the Salmon la Sac Sno-Park? Straight up skin track, I see...nice! Kick turns are a sign of weakness. 


Pretty much from the snow park. 

And yes, we like to keep our K.P.M.'s ( Kickturns Per Meter) to the minimum.....


That's some fun terrain up there.  Did you use the summer trail bridge or cross the river some other way? 


Aaron, summer bridge.
