Always fun, today I had my first Steep Gullies run of the season. There was a significant avalanche cycle in December that flushed out the starting zones. Skiing the 2nd, we tip toed and slow turn-stopped our way down the first third of the path. It was bony and tricky. That said, all the snow from the cycle had to go somewhere. The lower two thirds of the path was filled with deep new snow including a foot of fresh powder on top. That skiing was fantastic and made my day. We topped it off with a very nice 20 minute walk back to Pali Lift. The Steep Gullies experience is so unique and not found in many other places.
