Day Trip for some Blow, 13th August 2012

Darbs and I got a half dozen nice lines yesterday off Blowhard which has finally got a decent enough base on it, although still not up to usual. I was just up for the day and had to go through Wodonga for a meeting, which meant a 4am start and nearly a thousand clicks on the tachometer by the end of the day after another meeting in DP. The sun was out and the snow varied between slough, corn and scratch. Cloud came in around midday on Blowhard, however we noticed that Higgi seemed to be in continuous sun so we drove around and had a nice time through the glades on Women's Downhill, which was awesome despite having seen more traffic than I care to remember. People really need to start getting back en piste.
