:: Snow Conditions & Info
In the morning the pisted M1, Traverse, and Cas were fast and slick giving fantastic skiing( 5) The unpisted Lady was hard work ! However while I was wandering up to the summit and skiing down below the tor on lovely spring snow the Lady softened and by early afternoon it was brilliant. Small moguls of spring snow- grade 5 !
Was enjoying them so much I missed the last M1 poma so my plan to end the day on Coronation Wall and the headwall didn't happen. Plenty tracks there though and I'm sure it would have been good- legs were just too tired by then to skin all the way up !
