The springsnow backcountry is pretty fun in April. There might be a few pow days but i wouldnt count on it . There will be a fuckload of really technical lines that you can ski on corn snow.
I find it funny how this site is so biased towards Armada. As soon as someone leaves Armada everyone is uber surprised. Armada isnt the be all and end all of skiing you know!
If theres anything dumber than ghetto park rats skiing without poles, its ghetto park rats skiing with tiny little poles. It looks so stupid.
But no matter, when it snows my burly fuckin poles will tear through the pow.
