Daily vert: 840

Woohoo, finally a regular sized day with some half decent turns! My original plan today was to go for a wander around Marriott Basin in the Duffy, but after an un-named accomplice stayed out too late at the GLC and bailed on the mission at 6 in the morning, I gave a swift call to local ski touring guru Lee Lau, and made alternative plans to ski on Blackcomb. The short version is that after skinning up Green line to the top of 7th Heaven, we skied one lap on the Horstman Glacier, one lap on the Showcase Glacier, half a lap on the Blackcomb Glacier, then skinned back up to the East Col (near the top of DOA) then skied out the Blackcomb Glacier. Snow conditions were completely different to yesterday. Ski pen was less than 10cm in most spots but foot pen was still around 50cm. We dug a pit at the top of the Blackcomb Glacier which gave 2 results of CTH 24 RP about 50cm down.
