Skied the slot yesterday, Thanks to those putting in the skin track on Saturday. Only 3 tracks in before us and at least 8 of us hit it that day. The snow was varied with mainly packed pow. The phantom was very heavy, deep and creamy but still skied alright in the backseat. Made a short video from the day. It was made in haste since I know I should be working on other things than editing right now.

Everything felt stable and well consolidated. Dug a quick pit at the top of the slot and didn't notice any problematic layers.

Nailed IT! I think that's my favorite Slot Video ever. Love the surprise ending, and the tune. Thanks!

Thanks for the video. It really captured the day and the magic of dropping into a foggy nether world. Really enjoyed spending the day with you. Wish the snow was more pow and less chalky.
It was a huge day for the wife and she certainly achieved far more than she expected . It blows my mind to think of the progress she has made in the last few weeks. In January she broke down at the top of the mellowest of the blueberry chutes, terrified by the steepness and deep powder. She barely hesitated at the top of the Slot a mere 6 weeks later.
