Description

Quick trip between school runs to take advantage of the snow. Starting from 1000m didn't quite leave enough time to make the summit of Pravouta. Too much trail to break in 30cm of fresh snow. I stopped just at the summit ridge. For safety I skied down through the forest on the south end of Pravouta then via the pylons. Excellent snow conditions.
