Toward the end of every average snowmobiler's season come hard, concrete snow conditions in the mornings that slowly turn into six inches of slush by mid afternoon. You know what we're talking about: the late March and April snow that really sends your mind into dreams of next year's January, with its bottomless powder days.
While this may describe the way most of us feel as temperatures rise, snow depths fall and that desire for a nice day on the hill fades, for those living in Cooke City, MT, the powder season is still in full swing. While we sit at home repairing broken sprinkler heads in the yard, they're still out busting through waist-deep powder, enjoying the warm spring weather.
