Hey all,
Just back from a wonderful afternoon session at Jackson Frost. I skied with my Brother who was out on the snow for the first time in two years. We pulled up to the lot under blue skies and sunshine. We decided to make our first run down Lehigh then over to Exhibition to warm up. The snow was the famous JFBB Packed Powder / cold smoke - excellent. We headed over through the gateway to East Mt and up the East Mt Lift for a Elevator Glade to Elevator Combo. My Brother was impressed with how steep Vader is. He stayed out of the Elevator Glade since he was a bit rusty but skied Vader successfully, which BTW is very skiable...the edges had no problem on it for the most part. The right (skier's right), not as steep side, of the Elevator has bumps forming and the steeper left side is flat for the most part - definitely more challenging if you enter it from the left side.
We moved on to the Challenge glade which is a leg burner if you make the short turns through the bumps / trees. We headed back over to East Mt for a run on Floyd's and back to the Elevator / E-Glade until almost closing time. Floyd's is really good right now. Overall it was another great day at JFBB.
