The snow pack is at record low in many areas on the coast. But finally we got fresh snow, and lots of it (80 cm)! To our surprise it was of nice fluffy quality at Red Heather/Paul Ridge and we had some nice turns. So did dozens of fellow snow-addicts. When we left the slope looked like Whistler after the first run. This may be OK for lift skiing, but is hardly acceptable when 'you earn your turns'. Must try for a semi-alpine start next time to get our runs in before the crowds show up.
