Resort or Ski Area: Burke
Conditions: Powder, Loose Granular and Hard Pack
Trip Report: Well, I didn’t meet up with xwhaler and co. but it really was an amazing day. Not because of conditions because the cover was so-so. Where there was untracked powder it was uneven and crusty under maybe 3 or 4 inches of fresh so it looked soft but not really. But the base is in real good shape at this point. I hate to think what the coming weather is going to do. The groomers were carvable hardpack.
The really amazing thing was the view. I’ve never seen such clear, long and sharp views. It was arresting and couldn’t stop taking photos at first. So here’s some:
