Not a bad day out there today, my route was P12=>#40=>#2=>left on #21=>right on #3=>#20=>#18=>#2=>#33=>#40=>P12.

Was told when I arrived by the parking lot attendant conditions were somewhat icy after yesterday's rain. There was a thin layer of wet snow on top of a hard base underneath, which made for controllable downhills. My waxless skis also had no problem for grip.

I did meet a couple who said they had purple wax and were finding it difficult no grip. Very few cars at P12 or P11, most skiers staying on the parkways near P8?

As you can see on my first picture the snow depth on the first bridge on #40 is quite impressive, a long way to go here (3 weeks?) The was No fresh grooming of any kind on the trails I skied, the small backcountry's 18-20-21 were still quite good to ski on, except the tracks on the pond on #20 were starting to sink down a bit.
