Ok, so it’s been on my bucket list for ages to ski here on a perfect powder day. And it didn’t disappoint. The queues were as bad as all the reviews say, the lifts are shitty. And there were tons of intermediate off-pisters with the fully shiny gear. And yet it was still amazing. The pow was deep, the terrain is amazing. And you pop over a ridge and it just opens out into massive powder fields. But, even when the skiing is this good the experience just sucks and I won’t be rushing back.
