TR: Return to Pow (21 Nov 2010)

(Last Updated On: November 25, 2010)

The storm hit Saturday night. When we awoke on Sunday morning, the snow continued to fall and the wind continued to blow the snow sideways. With less-than-optimal backcountry conditions shaping up, we decided to go to search out something a bit protected from the wind. We found it on a north-facing slope up Slate River road!

We left with smiles on our faces, knowing we’ll return again!
