Pack snow kite in high winds on the mountain

Packing your kite can be a challenge in the winds atop a mountain. You need a good anchor. Try using a snowboard or ski stabbed into the snow.

Snowkiting is a lot like kitesurfing, but on snow and not waves. The principles are very much the same. The vertical of the mountain is a big difference and creates lots of challenging. Plus, you are getting a higher altitude wind that creates odd shifts not common to ocean shores.
