Difficulty: Moderately challenging
Things You’ll Need:
Step1
Treat yourself to fresh powder. Follow the general path of your group, but by all means, make your own tracks.
Step2
Ski or snowboard along the fall line. Otherwise, you may end up in a gully and away from your group's next meeting spot.
Step3
Look for the big areas of white when you are in the trees and aim for those. If you only look at the tree in front of you, you will most definitely run into it.
Step4
Give yourself plenty of distance from trees that might be hiding a tree well.
Step5
Follow the rule that says, "If you can't see it, don't ski it."
Step6
Jump, if you're so inclined. Keep an eye out for boulders, rolls or tree stumps that provide a good launching pad and a smooth landing.
Step7
Stay out of the flats. In deep powder, you might find yourself struggling to maintain speed.
Step8
Take advantage of natural features. Enjoy berms, banks, lips, fallen logs, chutes and bowls.
