In preparation for our trip to JH, I skied with my friends Tom, Nic, and Oscar this morning. We got there right at opening and sampled a bit of everything. Challenge was probably the ROTD with smooth grippy (albeit, a bit firm) snow. You could really dig it in and trust it. Main Street bumps continue to be hard/icy, but awesome rhythm at the bottom. Nightmare to Dreamweaver wasn't too bad, either. The Nightmare headwall was surprisingly cookie free only having just opened, Dreamweaver had some chunks though. We did a run through sleep hallow and I managed to find a rock or two that came in contact with my edges, but nothing that a file won't fix.
We met up with JohnnyStyle around 9:30ish or so, and he skied with us. Late in the morning we finally saw MBike and MrsSnowbunski, so JStyle waited up for them to make some turns with the Mbike family. A lift line was starting to form when we left around 11am, and they weren't doing any VIP enforcement, unfortunately.
If the winds die down for tomorrow, should be a nice morning to ski!
