Well, we did get out in the backcountry today but we’re not impressed with snow conditions. Colorado has been getting an amazing series of storms, but warm inverse density muck made the skiing difficult. Should firm up come clearing spell on Monday. Then the backcountry skiing will be fantastic, and we’re betting it will go on through June.
