Back from another epic day at the camel. This time I strategized my morning routine and was rewarded with FirstTrax promptly at 7:30 am, and subsequently the third civilian chair. Fresh cord was abundant on all six trails, and snow was softer and more enjoyable than yesterday. I spent 3 hours alternating between Marjie’s and Tuts, and only did Honeymoon once because it sucks. Conditions held up nicely throughout the morning, and Marjie's was better, with less hard pack, but instead small piles of powder scattered throughout the piste. Before leaving, I headed over to the Glen, and rode the dinosaur chair to make 9 runs on Rhododendron Glen, which was my favorite run of the day. At 9:08 am, a tragic turn of events had befallen me. While on the Sullivan lift, I was reaching into my pocket to change the song on my phone, and suddenly my $5 gift card from Blue Mountain fell and is now lost forever. I promptly contacted ski patrol and urged them to suspend lift operations for the day and send out a search and rescue party for my beloved gift card, but sadly this did not happen. Other than this devastating loss, today was another good day. JADIP* * JADIP - Copyright © 2017 by GrilledSteezeSandwich. All rights reserved.
