An Easter feast in PLPP

It was the final grooming of the season in PLPP, making for wonderful tracks and snow conditions in the south end of the park. 

Most of the ice (previously water puddles) were adequately covered on the lower sections of Whiskey Jack. The air temperature at Boulton Creek trailhead was -2°C when I started up Whiskey Jack at 1 pm.

Tyrwhitt

Skiers were having mixed results with wax today, but at higher elevation, the snow was a lot colder and in beautiful condition. I was using waxless skis today, but on Tyrwhitt, I could have been using purple wax.

Elk Pass

The Elk Pass tracks were very inconsistent with varying conditions. Some icy sections, some wet snow in exposed areas, and occasional excellent stretches.
