Nice writeup.  Sounds like your buddy had an excellent first trip.  I

remember when someone (Jerm?) mentioned that one could stop on a 40+

Stay calm. Breathe slowly.. its certainly possible (if the snow is soft, that is).

Friend Ben was in the ravine on Friday as well, and remarked that Dodge's looked quite skiable, and was seeing some turns on Friday. This might be a non-year for Duchess based on the photos I've seen so far.
