AtomicSkier Posted February 5, 2009 Report Posted February 5, 2009 (edited) I got on the snow around 3:15pm. Lift line was almost out of the corrals, but there was not a single person in the VIP line, so on the lift I went. After about 3 runs, there were like 0 people in the lift line...I even skied right onto the lift a few times without stopping. As the night went on, crowds picked up again due to the arrival of school groups. When I left at 5:30pm, the line was again out of the corral. Anyway...on to snow conditions. The snow was NICE. I only skied Razors and Challenge as I was rocking my GS:12s. It was pretty windy, and I couldn't reach a high enough velocity in order to really crank out the turns, but I still had enough speed for GS turns down Razors and Challenge. Challenge was the trail to be on due to be sheltered a bit more from the wind. Snow was grippy and smooth. If not for the wind, it would've been an awesome night. I got in two nice bonus days during the week that I usually don't, so I'm in a good mood right now. There is a race on Friday that will have Razors closed all day on Friday, and Saturday, so it was motivation to get out this afternoon for some turns on Razors w/ my big sticks. See everyone this weekend! Oh ya...forgot to mention...Zaldon was in the house, but never got to ride the lift with him. Edited February 5, 2009 by AtomicSkier Quote
