Got off to a slow start this morning and was freaking out the whole drive up that I wouldn't find a parking spot at Pico. Didn't help when I got stuck behind a logging truck. But I made decent time and even got a decent parking spot at 10am!
My buddy Mike the snowboarder joined me for his first day at Pico.
What can I say? Conditions are exceptional! Perfect packed powder and loose snow bumps on all trails; trees also packed powder with loose snow and some untouched snow for those that like to hunt. We did a lot of hunting and found knee deep in some areas. On one of our last runs we followed a few skiers out of bounds next to Sidewinder and were rewarded with long sections of shin deep snow. I didn't even mind the short hike out.
Perfect snow, some freshies, bluebird skies and cold temps. It does not get better than this! A few pics:

Is this the best eastern March skiing ever or what?!!!!!!!!!
