I meant to get this TR up last night so some of you could hit up Crystal Lakes today, but even if you don't get it til Tuesday, it should still be good. We skied the easy access lines close to Three Way peak both Saturday and Sunday and found some killer snow. We also bagged a few lines past Three-Way in Silver Basin which was good, but some death cookies are well hidden under the new snow so be careful. We also skied off the backside of Crystal (just past the boxcar) into Crystal Lakes and the snow was wind blow and grabby.
