Hey Uncle Neil....was up in your neck of the world...Mount Sainte Ann 2 seasons ago and got a flavor for the conditions  you stated. Much the same here in western NY.

Last year while at a one day bump clinic in Aspen, we had 2-3 feet of snow to ski in. The instructor, John Clendenin shows up on a pair of Head IM 72's and told me how much he loves those skis for all his front side skiing. Now it is Aspen and the closed thing they get to blue ice is hard pack....but, for everthing else, he was big on the Head 72's. John also owns a ski shop and could have his choice of all mountain skis to ride. We did drills on some groomed trails and rock and rolled in deep soft snow bumps.

He felt the Head IM 72 was the most versatile ski he had ridden to date.

Best,
Gary
