Awesome ski conditions today at Alta (in Quebec) <BR> <BR>6-8" of powder on a good snowdepth. It's now possible to ski everywhere on the mountain. So the Nadler's Needle (kind of future trail) got about 12-18" of light powder in many areas, cause I took some of the first tracks of the season in it <IMG SRC="http://www.firsttracksonline.com/discus2/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":)"> <BR> <BR>All the extreme trails were in great shape. With even the rocky/cliffy pitch of the Twist skiable. The woods were awesome, the numerous off-pistes were amazing and the day was incredibly nice, except may be the thermometer... way below 0F. (about -40F with the wind chill) <BR> <BR>Here are some pics of the day : <BR> <BR>arrival with the fresh tracks on the lower center trail <BR><A HREF="http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=510" TARGET="_top">http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=510</A> <BR> <BR>Narrow intermediate bumped powder trail <IMG SRC="http://www.firsttracksonline.com/discus2/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":)"> hmmmm <BR><A HREF="http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=511" TARGET="_top">http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=511</A> <BR> <BR>The magnificient wild Nadler's Needle with some nice powder and not too much branches. <BR><A HREF="http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=513" TARGET="_top">http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=513</A> <BR> <BR>The less magnificient Allen... which was a super cool trail in the past, but now, it needs a serious work of chain saw ! <BR><A HREF="http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=512" TARGET="_top">http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=512</A> <BR> <BR>Fresh tracks beside the chairlift <BR><A HREF="http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=514" TARGET="_top">http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=514</A> <BR> <BR><A HREF="http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=516" TARGET="_top">http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=516</A> <BR> <BR>The Elevator (Slalom) steeeeeeeeep looking <IMG SRC="http://www.firsttracksonline.com/discus2/clipart/happy.gif" ALT=":)"> <BR><A HREF="http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=515" TARGET="_top">http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=515</A> <BR> <BR>Little cool new couloir to reach the Fantastik Headwall <BR><A HREF="http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=518" TARGET="_top">http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=518</A> <BR> <BR>And finally the Principale groomed <BR><A HREF="http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=517" TARGET="_top">http://www.zoneski.com/forum/album_pic.php?pic_id=517</A>
