At mahto right now. Conditions are ok with hard packed snow. Slightly under powered with my 11rev, but it's supposed to pick up.

HOLY HURRICANE HANNAH, BATMAN, some of those gusts had to be approaching 50! It was near white out conditions, hard to see the terrain below your boards, and pulling like a freight train down wind. I was thankful to be on my PL 5.3 as alot of the 9 to 11 M bow riders had to land, dig in, and wait for the blizzard to blow through. It was good to see alot observant peeps rush to help others struggling in the over powered conditions. Kudos to all of you for looking out for your fellow Kiters. This is the spirit of cooperation that makes me proud to among your numbers. KEEP IT UP!!! :D
