Trip: Jim Hill -

 

Date: 2/17/2013

 

Trip Report:

Jim Hill was the place to be on Sunday with maybe as many as 15 people up there skiing. Feck, JeffH and i found a very nicely broken trail. After a little tricky sidehilling on the ridge and a short bootpack we summited in light snow but overall good visibility.

We found about foot of nice powder in the upper bowl. It got a little heavier down low but still skied well. The trees at the bottom were very icy but not too bad. The new clearcuts at the bottom are helpful, thanks loggers.

And here is my ski video. Next time i will orient the camera the other way to better fill the screen.
