In Case You're Wondering, It's Not Ski Season Yet.

This afternoon I drove up to Alta to do a little touring in Grizzly Gulch/Twin Lakes Pass area. The new snow definitely made for some great kick and glide on the cattracks but all over there were exposed rocks or bumpy snow mounds with rock-like nuggets of surprise inside, even on the upper elevation north faces. After skining for 40 mins. I noticed that getting clean turns in was a lost cause and turned around and skied out on the skintrack. I nailed a few nuggets of surprise in the process and vowed not to return until another three feet has fallen.
