Patchskiing 2021 Edition

[Stev]

Instead of posting a separate TR for every patchskiing day, I'm going to put them in one thread. I hope that others will add to this. I also hope to provide views, creamed corn and soft-serve snow images, along with some dog stoke.
I'll post some highlights from each day.

I'll start with a dusk patrol mission on the surprising skier-groomed Sagebrush Glade on Mt. Sputnik on February 5, 2021
