Quick Observation

After numerous stuck sleds and a lost iphone on Fantail (which has a deep, 2 m+ snowpack in many places and great sledding, fyi), we skied trees on the NE ridge above Fantail and found very good snow and pleasant skinning in the trees. Light north winds at times may have transported some snow at ridge tops but clouds kept us down low. A pit dug to ground at 1280m on an ENE slope exhibited a 90cm layer of facets above ground. The skiing was generally great. Creeks are still open (we found them) and there are still rocks to hit (found those too). Another meter of snow will go a long way to bury christmas trees and alders and improve access to some of the more outlying zones. Holler at us if you find the phone ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
