Saas Redux!!! MOMOMO POW!!!

This winter is off the scale...snow, more snow, and more more SNOW!!! After watching the radar for 3 days Jay, KK, and I headed off on a mission to find the pow. We made a last minute decision to hit Saas Fee in the corner of the Vallis.

We dawn patrolled it on Saturday AM and arrived after a 3 hour drive to lifts closed and a snowy day. At around 10 it opened up and I opened up the big camera (thanks Mom and Dad!)
