Day 6 of the 2016 season: EPIC Snowkite on Lil' Glen Lake (New 13M Z Kite)


A brief period of sun







After a morning of  downhilling at Crystal Mt. I hit up Lil' Glen Lake.
Epic snowkiting with 3-6 inches of pow on top of a mostly solid foam base rarely hitting the lake ice.
First use of 13 M Z kite - it felt big.  I don't think my 11 would have worked through the lighter periods of wind.
