Bluebird all day, but a strong wind threatening to blow you into the backs before you are ready! Dressed for the sunshine, was a bit cool initially but warmed up very fast. Too fast!
:: Snow Conditions & Info
A good day out. Summit and upper Goose grand, patchy below. Was becoming very patchy with use/sun at loading areas. Team had done a good job preping what was available. Quad track broken. Short walk to Goose from top of alpha (at the Gully), would say this was the better route up. Braveheart opened about 1Pm ish. Took the easy entry, lots of other possible. Snow in the back a mix from chop, slab, crust, sometimes all three! Best snow was skiers right holding a high line from braveheart into the shade. Fun lower down joining gullys together. Egress was OK. Hopefully team can patch it up around lifts in lower overnight temps. Went for a look at skiers right of summit Gully. Looked good, but on my tod and a chicken! Could almost ski back to gondola, wee walk from above race? Hut, and some grass skiing reqd. Take your rock hoppers!! Surface gets a 4 up top and a 2 at the gondola!
