Hiking along the traverse on the top of the Bridgers. Point my skis down that hill and I'm on my way to Bozeman! The other side is the top of Bridger Bowl.

Yup, Morning Glory is steep, and beautiful! We didn't ski straight down it by the big rock, but we looked down at the pinch and made a strategy for later in the week. It needs a tiny bit more snow, and its full of Avi debris, so its gonna be a challenge. What a great day! I've got to remember to soften my downhill leg when I'm in deep pow like this, I kept ending up back and inside. Doug has more photos and videos, so I'll get them up soon!
