First trip of the year. Went up with Greg. Got there early since Greg is a freak about leaving early..in a good way. Really what I remember most about this trip was hitting Burnt Ridge for the first time. Unless you get there thru the Twister glades, the trail to the burnt ridge lift from the base lodge is brutla on a board. First run on Burnt Ridge was Cirque glades. Chris later surmized it best by calling it an 'adventure' trail. Initial drop into the glades is via a break in a long rock wall which is very cool. Then it goes from cross-country to short downhill section back to cross-country. Overall, it was a littel disappointing ride-wise, however the scenery is top notch.
