Pre-season Whitewater. Noice!
Went up to Whitewater for a day of playing in the snow. My feet always feel a little beaten up the first day in the boots but the skiing was actually pretty good. I just did one lap up summit side. There were probably about 50 cars in the parking lot, as well as a full-on, eleven-year-old-girl birthday party. I got a hot dog.
As you can hopefully see from these photos, the coverage is pretty good. Feels like around 100 cms at the top. If you haven't yet, get up high! Winter is here.
Here's a snap from Summit Side looking over at Silverking. Filled-in pretty nicely!
Tourers headed over to the Glory Chair area. FYI, under the Glory Chair still looks a little boney.
