Did anyone get into the upper mountain woods? Any reports from the long trail?

I just got a report from Treeskier who skied the trees (of course.)

I'm not sure that Treeskier is a good indicator of the conditions in the woods. I've seen him ski in the woods on one inch of crust dodging rocks and fallen trees. You ask him how it was and you get..."that was not bad" However I will say this, I did ski in similar places he did yesterday and it was possible to make some good turns in some locations. We are far off from "the woods are open"

Photoggraphic evidence on TGR indicates some cleaner lines are there for the taking. Tread lightly me thinks.

I've seen tracks going in, in places. I've seen people coming out of Egans, onto Lower Birdland. I saw two nasty crashes on Lower Birdland, where people got caught by something. My theory is it was a bush that was buried at both ends, and not in the middle.

I'm conservative as to when I go into the woods, and don't think they are open for me, yet.

I hear people cheering, "More for me!" and I leave it to them.

I'm with you lostone!

I'm with ya there. I need a couple more feet - no need to get snagged in some brush and twist something (or worse).

Paradise woods (snowboarder's left) and Lower Paradise/Ripcord woods were nice - if taken with care. That's where I went after the chowder kicked in. I'm usually REALLY leery of early season woods due to an injury in same years ago, but after I ducked in just test a few turns, I found it to be plenty good. I didn't go full on of course, but poder turns are powder turns and I got plenty! Me like.
