Arrived at Green Rock about 8:15 am. Bruce Burrows of the Alpine patrol
dropped me and Jake the Wonder Dog off at the end of the road. I won't
bother with the car count since Jerry was there at about the same
time and has reported it. The thermometer at the picnic grounds showed
70 degrees in the sun. Things were warming up fast.
Snow course marker was 56". Skied up the Libby Creek Loop to the top
and dug a very hasty pit. After a quick observation that things looked
pretty solid Jake and I took off before the sun had a chance to turn things
to mush. Skiing was awesome. Just a little corn on a frozen base. I clocked
it at 530 vertical feet to the lower trail. This run will be good for another
couple of weeks or so. It is the most vertical you can get to in
such a short amount of time.
I climbed out and took the Barber Lake Road down to the ski area via
the snowmobile road. Susan S-T and her crew shared BarBQ on
the deck at 4A and I helped them with sweep. Good day.
