A few photos from the last few days:
Brittany’s car:
Crested Butte Mountain Resort received roughly three feet out of this storm system. Some new terrain opened, including some of the steeps like West Wall. The base isn’t quite there, but at least it’s on its way now. Patrol should have enough snow to work with and get everything but the “extreme” terrain open once they run boundary ropes.
The backcountry is still unbelievably touchy. Reports indicate that more like 5 or 6 feet fell at places like Irwin. The good news is that the weather this week looks dry and relatively warm, and even the lows aren’t going to be way below zero like they were earlier this month. Hopefully that will really settle things out for a more stable snowpack as we move forward this season.
