Was just up at Seymour this morning. Called it a day early.
Got there, to see loads of snow dumping. As soon as I picked some snow off a truck I knew it'd be bad. It was heavy and wet. Visibility was bad, the terrain very uneven, snow incredibly sticky and the falling snow eventually turned to rain. Bombing straight from the top of the mystery chair left me with little speed by the bottom. Crap conditions for sure. Very dissapointing.

And it's going to be raining for maybe another 20 hours, then some snow, then cold and sunny which I'm assuming might mean icy. It's a shame.

Manning for meeee
