Morning lap up Gastineau Peak with a mixed bag of rime, wind affected pow, and trail skiing. Then a lap up to the Dan Moller cabin with a mini lap of skiing up above it. 3.5-4ft of new now skiing well, for now, with seemingly good stability.

2-17-17 Mt Jumbo
5" of rain, then clear and cold, not a good time to try to ski the Jumbo Couloir. Oh well, recon.

| Top....no wind, actually warm. |

| Skied the first few turns (Jumbo Couloir), but the wind had loaded it, then it rained and turned it into 45+ degree ice. No thanks. |
