went through turnagain today. about 4 feet at the marker. a lot of the alders are weighed over from the snow. there was lots of skiiers and snowboarders. snow banks in the parking lot are as tall as a car. it looked decent for mid november. didnt see any of the poacher tracks everyone was talking about?
