Made some turns up @ Tony Grove today. Still pretty thin and "contrived", but skiable. Got a late start-made 4 laps. Snow quality ranged from dry granulated sugar to wind-affected to saturated glop at the lowest elevations/ in the sun. Quite windy off the ridges. Found drifted pockets that were 2', much less than that elsewhere.

If only I could move through the mountains with the grace, speed, and ease of Alta the Dog^

patience my friend, patience, it will come,i cant believe you made turns in that colb, and it does look pretty thin, i hope it starts to pile on, you had better be skiing on some old PRE's or something, i saw some pretty big rocks that you nailed, still looks fun, lets ski when i come home
adios
Todd,
yeah, I hit a couple rocks. I'm skiing on my Trabs, and the tip is broke on one of them, so I wasn't too worried. A couple runs were rock free however. We'll def. make some turns when you get back. I got a snomobile, so we can access deep into the ranges.~Colby
I know how sad you are because of NO SNOW! I'm amazed you actually skiied in that little of snow. I hope you used old skis.
