if the powder is too deep for the incline then a good grooming is in order but if i am riding a wide board and can keep going... god bless the powder☺

I have been skiing for over 30 years and there is absolutly no differance between the stuff that comes out of a gun and the stuff that falls out of the sky.

Yes, a foot of fresh pow is better than an inch of wet manmade but an inch of wet manmade is the same thing as an inch of natural.
