Eying up the southern face of castle peak from the meadow below. The center chute has been on my hit list since last season, just needs a little more snow to fill in.
Jason – taking a closer look at the Castle peak cliffs band from our new vantage point on the ridging above Castle Valley. Decent snow coverage for December but still looking like low tide.
Jason – skinning up the SW ridgeline of Castle Peak
Me – starting to traverse across the NW side of Castle Peak before zig zagging up to the Northern ridge line
Me – stoked to drop in for some shaded pow turns on the way down to Round Valley
Jason – taking pictures of snow. Is that a nice 2 year parmesan or just massive surface hoar?
Spoiler alert: It was surface hoar.
Moar surface hoar
Jason – skinning across the bottom of Round Valley
