2009.03.11 - Jones Pass Dawn Patrol

What did you do before work this morning? Devon, Caleb, and I took advantage of the recent snowfall and promising forecast to get in a dawn patrol. Caleb turned us towards the Jones Pass area where we found some great early morning powder turns. The weather was absolutely gorgeous as the winds calmed and temperatures climbed on a typical bluebird Colorado spring day.

After dealing with some slick dust on crust conditions on the approach and first lap, we swung around to a northeast-facing gully to find our best turns of the day.
