Ski Day 3: Decided on a late start to let temps warm up and maybe get some sun to soften surfaces.

Friday night I noticed that a huge widowmaker that had finally fallen near the cabin right onto the green trail. I filled the saw with my last few ounces of mix and noticed a leak... it was dripping out, so I had to make it happen quick. Got this dream about nordic xcd out the back door, and that tree was in my way.

...and off to Gore. It started gray at the base and nil-vis pea soup at the top of Bear.

Eventually the sun came out and temps moved into the 40s. Snow was getting very soft.
