12/17 Pow Mow 15m Manta Twisted
Posted: Sat Dec 18, 2010 1:07 amPow Mow has lots of pow pow. There was 6-8" fresh powder all over the hill. Only a couple rocks were visible. East side of the hill is a little wind swept with lots of waves to burn your legs up quick.
Saw the light wind day forecast and decided to head up any way. If nothing else I would get to look at some snow. Got there a little before 10 to pretty light wind. I decided that I was not going to get skunked so, I geared up. Got the kite in the air but had to work pretty hard to keep it there. Did some short tacks across the top of the hill where the wind is usually strongest. Then the wind turned on. I was nicely powered up and spent the next three hours tracking up the whole hill. Great day.
