Photo of the Week: Moonlit Corn
Record warmth graced the summits of the Northeast’s highest mountains this past weekend, and with the moon still nearly two-thirds full on Friday evening, we couldn’t resist the idea of a few turns on moonlit corn. Near-perfect corn snow was in effect up to approx. treeline, and above treeline, the snow surface was a rare and delectable “crispy corn” – corn snow topped with the most delicate of crusts, thanks to a tad bit of radiational cooling… It was beautiful skiing, and the perfect warm up for some equally beautiful sunrise skiing.
