Just me
Discussion:
Arrived at 9:30am at the parking lot (-4C), a few cars but mainly backcountry skiers, just saw one skier asking me the direction for Bryant creek shelter / Warden cabin.
Skied CCW the 15km loop(Ursa Mayor, Virgo, Pegasus, Hercules, Orion), then from the parking lot headed to Watridge lake and Spray River bridge (end of grooming).
On the way back, I skied Pegasus, Virgo, Orion and Draco.
The tracks are firm and fast and Swix V45 Violet worked well. There are some needles and I had to scrape my grip zone full of needles a couple of times.
