I figured I would do one of these, since I posted about my screw ups on Thursday. Crowds were light while I was there. I was the only car on the access road, at 7:50, which made me wonder if I actually goofed up the time. Conditions were pretty good, first thing, especially considering the lousy weather, over the last couple days. The groomers did an outstanding job. Challenge was where it was at, especially on the left side. The left side was ungroomed, fan powder. I did one run on east moutain, but didn't like the way my skis were gripping, since it was harder packed and a little icy. I was surprised at how dull my edges have gotten, so I lapped 10 out of my 15 runs, through the powder on Challenge. Hopefully the weatherman goofs up, because the forecast for the weekend looks horrible.

Nice riding today.

Lots of powder.

Lift lines were very short for a holiday. Never really had to wait.

Weatherman said 3pm rain but nope..... blue sky and sunshine at 4 PM .

Just another day in paradise.

There was lots of man made powder on the trails that have the fan guns. Challenge was fun.

Looks like yesterday was the day to be there. Today was nice but with the warm up and heavy traffic the snow became almost spring like. I'm all for spring snow, but in the spring. Although mini bumps were forming on the last headwall of River Shot. The challenge trees were fun today too. There's a whole lot of rocks deeper in though which makes it pretty unskiable. Once we get though tomorrow's 52 degrees, winter's back for Monday.
