Discussion:
We managed to all get to Nakiska by 11:30 driving in white out conditions through Lac Des Arcs and just beyond Casino. Temp -18 and first tracks (unless someone else's were blown in). 600 M climb was relatively easy after the gargantuan effort of Ribbon Creek Groomer yesterday in brutal temperatures and wind. Descended a bit to a sunny bend in the trail as we were ravenously hungry by now. Super "safe and secure" ski down for me, but others loved the speed. We finished in -12 and were not bothered by wind hardly at all. No signs of lynx or skunk prints or other skiers. Looked like Sunburst/High Level got some tracks today. Imagine Skogan Pass will see alot of traffic tomorrow.
