<p>Pretty straight froward until you get into the wind zone and then it's different world with massive wind loading occurring</p> <p>Lots of drifting even in relatively protected terrain</p>

Yesterday's dense, creamy snow provided the perfect base with about a 1/2 foot of light density on top.... great skiing.
