Turns year round

This weekend it was time for October turns. Since all the glaciers around Vancouver look pretty sad this year, Bram and I decided to drive down to Mt. Baker to get some turns in. Last week we had some heavy rain falls and we were hoping for some fresh snow.
So we haded up from the parking lot towards Heliotrope ridge. Snow started at around 1800 meters but we carried our skies pretty much until the glacier. Then we skinned up to the ridge and had a fantastic ride down. So we climbed up again and again and again. In total we skied four times from the ridge to the bottom of the glacier. There were some crevasses, but overall it was amazing skiing. The fresh snow was somewhat wind packed but it was still amazing to ski. Once more, Bram was faster uploading his pictures….
