Comments
Comments: Wasn't sure if it would be soft enough to ride this this afternoon. It was! Also, a good sign to see 2 skiers on their descent as I was going up - was very edge-able. A bit solid over the postholes (who postholes a designated ski trail????????) but very rideable. Favorite spot is the little hill under the cabin - that was super fun as the sun warmed the snow a bit more there.
