Steep and deep. Well okay -- relatively steep (for MN) and just enough snow to make them shreddable. Boarded for two-and-a-half hours straight on Welch's backside on Saturday. Yah, that's right, the Welch Village Back Bowls. Black gold. Texas Tea. I digress.
These are pretty awesome ski runs for these parts. Adam's Abyss has a couple of nice drops. Lauren's Ledge is quarter-pipe-bowl-like and super fun to shred from edge to edge... Just let the back of your board slide over the side edge and cut back -- a rush for sure.
And it's fun to stand at the bottom, waiting for the chair lift, watching people come down the Carter's Cliff headwall at the bottom of the back bowl access run. The ski patrol likes to stand at the bottom of Carter's Cliff and pick up the "Yard Sale" items left by gapers and gorbys as they fly, out of control, into the side woods above...
