yep - we got pounded this past week. 126cm in 7 days and things are finally filling in up top. i avoided the crowds yesterday and heard that it was mayhem up there. i believe it cause when i went up today in search of left-overs there was nothing to be found. hard to believe 8000 acres of 50cms can be completely shredded in 24hrs.
my main goal was to do a few laps of flute, but if was closed today, i can only presume for avalanche danger. and even that was looking pretty tracked out.
i'm hoping we get some re-freshies this week cause the mountain's good and deep now.

man saturday march 21st was epic but all the pow was gone off the main runs in like 3 hours because the glacier chair on blackcomb was lined up the whole day (brutal!) so I just t-barred it all day
