Beautiful winter day that felt like spring when the sun peeked out a few times. We saw one group of skiers heading up to snapper trail, they did a nice job breaking out the new snow. We took the turn up Gorge Brook and did our share of breaking until just before the summit when another group of skiers passed us on their way out. Fantastic packed powder conditions for skiers. We had brief views of the summit until the clouds rolled in big time when we hit the small sign stating we were on “Gorge Brook trail to Ravine lodgeâ€, then complete white out! We only kept going because there were fresh ski tracks, very little wind and we’ve been here at least 6 times before. Skies eventually cleared a bit while we were snacking near the top and watching the last group of skiers descend. Easy trek down and out and interesting to see the varied routes skiers took around and in between the trees! |
