Bruins North Bowl and 8812

Late spring and it just keeps snowing. Neal joined us for a trip up the Connaught. We couldn't help taking a photo of the hotel. Will it be gone by this time next year?



We headed up onto Bruins Ridge. It felt mid-winter at times. Blowing like mad, swirling snow, and cold!



We reached Bruins Pass and had a look around.





The north side looked great so we ripped this skins and had a really nice ski.



Followed by snacks.





And the climb back up to the pass.



And the return descent down 8812 bowl.



The ski out down valley bottom is a delight this time of year. No fighting to maintain a high line or thrashing through alder. Just point 'em down and go.



But the end is near! I think we'll give up before the ski season this year.
