Peter and I found great snow in the chutes off Sourdough Ridge on Sunday. Other slopes softened up early and became quite slow but the narrow, steep lines were really nice - easy climbing and fast snow for the ski down.
What day were you up there? Saturday morning?  I think we skied that chute in the first couple of pictures shortly after you did.  Great snow.

We were there on Sunday and there were some nice looking tracks in one of the chutes - encouraged us to make some of our own.

Here’s Marcus making tracks down one of those many chutes.

Also the view of the Olympics from the southern peak of Freemont. What a day!
