Cardigan - 06APR2014

Post by robrox » Tue Apr 08, 2014 9:37 pm

Cardigan cover is excellent! It should be good on the main trails for more than a week. Watch it off line, rotten snow is all over the place. Dukes was good Sunday noonish, a little scratcy in the shade. We tracked the Alleyway, switching leads in rotting snow..

Alexandria Trail was pretty sweet! Too short, but great cornsnow skiing on descenders left. The high sides were firm, but edgeble. There might be some walking by next w/e if he have a heat wave, but there is a lot of snow!

Some video fun:

Not having funds for a drone and GoPro, I take shots of other folks....

Besides, the first 30 or so turns on the just remounted Crossbows were nothing anybody would like to see anyway. I will admit that before the first run was done, I was enjoying snappy, quick turns. A few more hours on the 'bows and I'll be ready for the other side of the camera.
