17-20 Big Horn Mountains
Drove up on Wed and got a late day session on Bald Mountain's west side on 15M.
Lodging at Wyoming High Country Lodge, just a couple of miles from Bald Mountain, sled access only.
Thursday was great 11M day on the south west face of Baldy, the "famous" gliding mountain ridge.
Great snow conditions and tons of features to play on. Then we moved around to Terminal B, the south east facing part of Baldy.
Friday we went to Terminal B, rode for hours on 9M. Later we packed up and went to Duncum mountain for the late day 9M session. Long day...
Saturday the clouds cam in, and we had to go lower to find kite spot. The 15M conditions were smooth and reminded me of kiting runs at a resort on the groomers. We may be snowed in Sunday. The plows don't run up here on the weekends. 1-2 feet in the forecast sat night. We may have to wait for the plows to get out of here on Monday.
