Uintas: Wolf Creek Beacon Park and Ski Tour - February 14

Waller, Maegan, Greg C, Sid, and Chris started the day at the new beacon park in Wolf Creek. We took turns looking for and probing three buried beacons. This was a good chance to practice the multi-burial functionality of our transceivers. We then did a full departure and transceiver check before heading into the hills. We began with a short low angle drop in the trees above the campground. The new snow was perfect in texture and density. We then ascended lookers left of Wolf Creek Bowl and headed to Neeley Bowl. We used OnX and Caltopo with custom layering to find a low risk line into the bowl that avoided the steep headwalls. The drop was soft and creamy. We headed back to Wolf Creek bowl and the group got two drops with some air time off kickers before heading back to the cars. Lunch was enjoyed at Mirror Lake Diner with Chris and Sid putting down monstrous burritos.
