hey
Turny wasn't bad today at all. Found some deep snow in areas with 8-10 inches of new snow. snow is super fluff due to cold, its nice.

4-8 inches of snew snow. went over the top and that was a joke..(bare ground from the wind) down in the trees it was pretty soft. still plenty of powder if you want to get stuck. it was pretty flat light though
Rode today, 8 to 10 on the front and 18 to 20 in bowl 1. All the tracks were filled in and was nice and soft, dug a small pit at the top and looked pretty good but was loaded( any more snow and it will be highly unstable). When it goes blue it's gonna be fun. We still burned a full tank and were wooped when we got to the truck. The roads are nasty, we pulled a fella out of the bank on the way home and I could barely stand up the roads were so slick.

Billy, did you figure out what was wrong with your sled?
went to turny to day and its raining its arse off down there!!!
Raining sideways in the parking lot, 38-39 degrees via the truck temperature gauge on dash. Didnt even unload, came back to town.
The seward hwy from Girdwood to the pass is damn near a flood. Careful if your headin down that way. The road turns to glare ice with water on top about 1/2 mile up the pass.

Just leaving it rained and snowed all day, I'm soaked to the bone but all in all it was a good ride. Stuck to the trees , found many good deep tree runs and pockets of untouched heavy wet pow. We also saw many natural avalanches so be carefull out there, this stuff is loading the hills, it was also very windy up high.

Pretty sure it's based on inches of water and it converts it to snow. But in this case it is to warm, the snow depth dropped if anything from warm temps and rain. Would have been nice if it stayed below freezing, then we would have 17" of fresh. It was however DUMPING up top. Didn't go up but we did play in the transition point some of the day between rain and snow.

The sunday before last, we rode with your buddy for a while on the black and orange XP. Pretty cool guy, he lost his hood off his sled. Finially found it later in the day. He mentioned that his buddies didnt make it up that day due to a roll over accident the day before! lol....
