Warmer 35 at 8am, mostly cloudy no wind. Slopes in usual great shape. Elevator right side is anlittle bumped, but middle and left is still wide open

Challenge glade a little icier than it was yesterday afternoon - might be better later in the day.

 

As if there aren't enough shots of Elevator, here is a different perspective with a ski patroller about to launch.

haha kinda looks like a little hill from that shot doesn't it.

I guess that's pretty much what it is, although a steep little hill...

Much as I like JF, I have to admit you are right. Pretty short. The challenge is just taking that first step off the top into the steepest part of the slope. After the first turn or two, its all about controlling your speed so you don't hit the crudish bottom going too fast.

You're right. We need some video of the Elevator (Thanks to JFSkiDan for his camera skills). Here I am making my way down it a few weeks ago - not my best form

You can always make the run longer by skiing the Elevator Glade and right on down to the Elevator without stopping in between.
