Chris and Katie: 9 Double Blacks, 8 Single Blacks, and 1 Blue. Recorded by Chris's phone. His battery ran out before the end (on Conclusion).
Chris and Katie: 9 Double Diamond runs, 8 Single Diamonds, and one Blue Square.
Tracks from Jason's GPS
Second day of spring skiing with Chris, Dick, Jason, Tristan, and Joe R. Thanks to Chris for the track and Dick for the pics. This may be the end of the season for most of us.
