March 10, Big Sky, North Summit Snowfield

Kevin, Maddie, and Jack waiting for the tram

After another day skiing Big Sky with the Weber family, we split off the group to wait in the tram line.  About a 45 minute wait got us onto the tram.   Without first hand knowledge of the Big Couloir conditions, decided to do a repeat of the North Summit Snowfields.  This time with much better visibility albeit not as much fresh powder off the top.  Still a great run with good variety.  4000' elevation drop.
