in Nsnow, Snow
We didn't get much snow this season, I'm not sure there was a single powder day in 2025 yet, and even the first part of the storm, never really hit. The drive up was uneventful, and I was shocked at how little snow, there was. Even Carson Lake was not fully frozen and was not covered with snow:
Once arrived, it was very dry:
The next day, the storm didn't hit, so I skipped most of the day and only went for a couple of runs before they closed 6 again for wind. Snow conditions were terrible and confirmed I was right to otherwise skip the day:
My last run of the day in Fawn Ridge, beautiful snow, it was worth waiting the week for friday:
the inch of fresh snow looked ok, but it was so much crud underneath....
long line for turns out, not a lot of pow ;)
it wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either
you can see it wasn't very deep pow
eagle bowl just opened for the chair 4 rush
but let's wait at chair 2, first :)
it was easy to tell the new snow was not deep
never seen the wave os bare in february
the first runs down the backside are always pretty
a bit of a line for 6, but nothing terrible
10 opened reasonably early and the now was great
short line for 10, well worth it
