Deep Pow
Waking up on Saturday morning we were greeted with the news that we
had about 30cm of fresh snow to look forward to. We headed up to
Treble Cone which is a
freeride only resort to see how it all was.
Getting there was interesting with the road being the narrowest so
far. Then, the backside of the mountain wasn’t open so the queue on
the one lift that was open was a horribly long wait. When we got to
the top Alain decided to take me over to a steep basin that was really
deep in powder. I struggled to get out as we traversed over to some
easier terrain. The depth of the snow combined with the steepness
were a little intimidating to me. After getting worn out getting out
of there we rode some easier groomed trails and only small areas of
powder.
After lunch we got a few more runs in and the backside opened up so
everyone else went to ride that while I just cruised down to the base.
I was pretty worn out at the end of the day and almost fell asleep on
the couch.
