Deep and heavy

Oh my...it snowed a lot! Access rd not fully plowed made switchback to lodge a little tricky. 40 ish on p lot picnic table. Hovering just below 0. Thanks to the peeps putting in the skin track. 70 cms + by top chair and maybe 100 cms of recent storm snow by top t. Wind gaining with elevation. Bursts of strong winds from SW ish by top tee and swirling winds with in the valley at treeline ripping snow off of trees and sending it skyward. Heavier layers within the recent snow made for straight line riding needing steepness to get going and you prayed you didn't submarine down to the mush which would stop ya dead. Deep loud long rumbles from Valley of Doom starting by 11 and continuing through out the day. Blood Lust bowl across from switchback produced fan of avi debris that is approaching creek bottom. Snowing >= 3 cms an hour on the first up with some intermittent clearing in the afternoon.
