Season 2023 Day One


We had about 20cm of wet snow in Rossland yesterday, while it made for nice photos, it was sloppy and made the driving conditions very challenging.  It was not inspiring snow for skiing.  However not much higher at the Strawberry Pass (about 20 Km Past Red Mountain Resort) with temperatures 4-5C colder the snow conditions were much better, in fact, they are ski worthy.

We skinned up to Red Dog cabin, about a 30-minute effort.   We are so fortunate to have access to these cabins, all volunteer-maintained and open to anyone who is up for the adventure.  


The Snow conditions are thin, but the skiing was great.  The photo below is Christine's first for season 2023.  It was a good one...
