2 - 3 inches fresh powder snow. It covered up the ice pretty well. The section about half way up that is always icy was a little tricky. With the snow it was tough to get the Hillsounds to bite into the ice. Some pretty deep drifts between the tower and the large carin. We met a guy skiing down right at that icy section. Talk about No Fear. |
