After recent rain into the alpine, conditions could have been a lot worse today at Kootenay Pass. Trail breaking was as easy as it gets, and with 5cm of new snow accumulating atop a deteriorating crust, turns were a little challenging in the flat light, though predictable and still fun. Jordy and I have long realized that if we wait for perfect conditions we won’t get much done in the mountains, so we almost always just go, and deal with whatever we find.
