Seen Fred, KIrk and Peter from the Caribbean,Kevin Dobson Bob Allen, Jason R and Eric Gustafson rode up with Chris Gainer if your just on the lake its okay their are spots of icy conditions still on the lake but a good couple of inches of snow on the lake. The HIlls however have sage brush sticking out take a look at the video it shows it.

Nice afternoon session as the wind was just strong enough to allow some good reaches all the way up towards the Visitor Center and back. Some big open water and lots of slush turns kept the pucker factor a little higher than normal. Good snow in places and it felt sweet to make thousands of turns on flat powder. Ice factor still in play and I have some bruises to show for it. Let's hope for more snow as it is sure nicer driving to Strawberry than Skyline. The River is at least two feet from ridable at this time.
