Winter 2015-2016 Day 10: A soaking day - probably one of the worst riding days ever.

Challenging conditions - wondering why I Spent $122.00 for this soaking of a day.
I had to make it work due to spending all that money. Four hours of soaking rain, wet snow, low visibility and fog. Very physical survival type riding.
On a good note up at the 9000 foot mark there was some 2-3 inches of fresh pow in the green/blue glades, Took a couple of runs there but the exit was through a mine field of the crudest crud I've ever encountered.

NOTE to self: The Canyons is a confusing resort to navigate especially when the visibility is poor.
I will take this as a learning experience, the next time the weather forecast is maybe rain, maybe snow depending on the elevation I'll double think it.
