On the long weekend that Jon was in town, we wanted to get out touring but the avalanche forecast wasn't amazing. We all had to be back in the city by 5 so we settled on a spot that Bennett and I had been to a few weeks ago, where we could do as many laps as time permitted and wouldn't have to worry too much about route-finding. As we had such a great time at Narao Glades last time, we decided to come back!
And we came back again the next season!
