A baker's dozen skiers from the Valley of the Rogue in Southern Oregon enjoyed spectacular views on the West Rim Drive at Crater Lake. The 3-4 inches of new powder was crisp at 10:30 AM with 18 degrees and stayed dry throughout the day. Bright clear skies gave us wide vistas and except for a few windblown icy patches in the gaps, the snow was great. The meadows below the rim road provided an excellent place for some downhill turning practice. Wizard Island peeks out in the background of this group at the Watchman Overlook.
