Winter just doesn’t want to let go. Last weekend the valley received snow here and there. By Monday morning there was up to a few inches of new snow in some places. Three of us decided to test it out with a trip up to Loup Loup. Driving in, we noticed the snow was fairly wet and could make for more challenging skiing than Spring typically yields. We hiked strait up the hill under temperamental skies that showered snow on us one moment then sun the next. We then tentatively began making turns downhill through a couple of inches of thick and wet crud. It took a little work getting down, but we all had a good time laughing at ourselves, each other, and the wonderful conditions Mother Nature provided.
