The rain that fell earlier in the week has created a very hard base. Tempering the conditions is a couple of centimeters of fresh snow. The set track set previously is basically a skier set track now. Skiing was good. Much, much caution has to be taken on Hector as there has been a creek crossing that has been packed but the crossing has failed with at least three major holes that have formed over the creek If someone fell in one of these holes they would descend at least 18 inches. They can be seen upon approach but the approach is fast and a certain level of skill is required to navigate the hazard.
