666, bcrider, mmcpheet, JT, puffnattie and powderjunkie.
Bluebird, no wind, and a cloud. My car read 55 F at 5:30 pm so I'm guessing it was in the 50's for most of our journey.
Park on the pass, drink some water, hike up to Leavitt Peak, ski down, hike up again, ski down to the road, and then hitch a ride back to the car. Along the way, try to ski some corn snow in wide open bowls, and a hint of winter snow off Leavitt. At 8:20 am, the skin track started. However, we arrived back to our modes of transport at around 5:00 pm.
Bay Bridge at 4:24 am….
Did it freeze the night before?
666 arrived in about 3 hours…warp speed, no traffic.
bcrider could not be any slower. JT lapped us many times.
"Which one should we hit?" 666 responds with arm signals….
Skins come off right dad?
A rare sight caught on 101010101010's. A skier and a boarder converse.
How about a couple turns?
I mean, it does have a nice backdrop….
…and again from another angle….
Bcrider was with us, and he decided to "snowboard" down this CHUTE! OMG!
….he slaps a scenic ridge with funky soft-ice.
….milks a little carve action….
That JT guy LOVES to hike….here he is booting up this chute while we rehydrate.
After one sip, he's already skiing down…AMAZING!
Yep, you guess it. JT passed us up on the skintrack on the way back up.
I love scree, especially when wearing Tecnicas….feels good when it bangs on your knee.
666 goes into the past….
….and even further to the west…yet another playground.
Bcrider, however, gets his jump on….
…into the hollow snow to granite bonk.
