Grundlefloss: that which flosses the grundle. 'Nuff said.
So I forgot to take a pic of the Snow Depth-O-Meter but things have definitely improved. After I spent my last day off installing my new
Burnt Mountain Designs
Lite Spikes on my new Fischer
S-Bound 112s (full binding review coming later), today was the day to go skiing.
The Lite Spikes require a G3 or Black Diamond jig, neither of which the local ski shop has, despite having about 30 different alpine jigs. I used two different jigs and did a lot of measuring to install the bindings:

Since self-employed Telemark Dave had some work to do this morning, I went to Hidden Bump to start the day. Conditions were excellent and I enjoyed a few hours of skiing fast on hero snow:

TD arrived shortly after I got home. He was of course envious of my new skis, even though they are the same dimensions as his Karhu Guides. Way groovier though, especially with the Spikes.

We decided to check out a glade we haven't skied yet this year, Bonk Hill. As we skied towards the hill, it became obvious that there is quite a bit of snow in the woods around here:

Conditions were primo, so the Hundwalden Ski Patrol agreed to drop the rope on this one:

TD graciously offered me first tracks but he got his picture taken:

I brought skins but someone else left them in the car. En route to the next destination, we took the lower-angle line suitable for the waxless skis and some thicketeering was required:

Eventually we arrived at the top of Secret Hill. Dave is pleased to note that much of the grundlefloss has been buried:

And off he goes:

My turns were less than stellar. I did make it to the bottom so that I could take a shot of TD snaking an awesome line down Secret Hill:

Have a great weekend everyone!
