I went up with 2thetop and hit Baker in the early AM. Never been first out of the parking lot (road?) ha ha. Dang is the snow level high. Looks like only 3 or 4 feet of snow by the bridge near the bathrooms. 
Parking lot was easy coming early.
The snow? Fantastic!! 2thetop got stuck a couple of times just trying to get out of the main bowl area on the way to big house. Never broke trail out of there, ,man that was fun. It was weird climbing up and having the flat light make it so you didn't know what was coming a head of you. Sure makes for some interesting moments.
A little while later the sun started coming out and was making everything better!!
After we pounded that out a little bit, we headed up further and the snow just kept on getting better and better. Down hill carving was a blast! Man is that so much fun!! Ended up going down the mountain around 2pm because I was beat. Didn't put many miles on and didn't burn through too much gas but it sure feels like it. Sessioning an area really tires you out compared to just traveling around. Ended the day with almost too much sun. lol It was so bright that I still lost some definition, man it is interesting how the sun can effect things up there.
There was a lot of people up there today too. Looked like there were vehicles parked down the road for about a 1/2 mile or so. It is nice having a short trail ride back to the vehicles, but it doesn't look good for a long spring season.
pictures coming in the morning.
