Dead Tree was a cheese grater today

Today at Squaw Valley was a bit funky.  The north facing slopes were hard and textured like Cheese Graters, the south facing aspects were a thick appetizing Soup, and the groomers were perfect and Buttery.

As per usual, there is always something fun at Squaw, you just gotzta search for it.
