Chasing Snow Traps

 Tis the season to be chasing snow traps... After the false start a couple of weeks ago it mostly has been too warm and marginal amounts of precipitation at best. Having said that the last mini storm did improve skiing conditions (in places spectacularly) on mid-to-high mountain north-facing snow traps. The trick is to find ones that are not all skied out. This will involve longer approaches and only the ones that know how to keep a secret will keep enjoying them. Here are some pictures from yesterday (Click to enlarge):

snow trap looks like.

There are good objectives out there but they sure require
a fair amount of climbing/walking/skinning.
