Just got back from riding powder all day at Mt Hutt - was loads better than expected 
. Last week's storm has dumped so much snow up there it's ridiculous! Gonna set it up perfectly for Spring riding (yeh, now how come that's only 4 weeks away already?!). The base is the highest it's ever been for this time of year - nearly 2.5 metres. Which of course is nothing in Japanese or US standards, but a lot for here.
The report said only 4cm of fresh but there was at least 15-20cm in places. Finally I got to ride the South Face area and the triple chair, neither of which has ever been open in all the times I've been there - great cos barely anyone down there and loads more terrain to play around on. Only problem today was the vis, which was in and out constantly - giving me some shitty flat landings on cat tracks that appeared from nowhere. Was riding with another GoneBoarding member today, Farran - hopefully we can meet up for a Temple Basin mission at some point.
Had to bail when the conditions went to shit - zero vis and snowing miniature ball-bearings - pas bon! Of course it all cleared again when I got my boots off and back in the car. Here's all the pics.
