indiggio Posted December 21, 2017 Report Posted December 21, 2017 Just got back from a short, but fun morning session. Arrived in the lot around 8am to 28' temps. Guns where on strong the entire length of Razors and the upper part of Sidewinder and Chute, with a bunch of fan guns on for effect, I guess. A patroller came down Challenge as I was riding up and I didn't hear any scraping, so decided to see what it was like. Not bad! The fresh blown and grooming was quite nice, so I made a few more laps before all the new was scraped off. Took a good run at the Falls which is starting to get a lip, but halfway down is still pretty hard frozen cord, so watch out. Took a run down Paradise which was quite nice with a bit of new blown and Lazy was much the same. They did nothing to the bumps and so they froze back up hard and the little dusting they received didn't help, so I avoided them. Not a whole lot else to report, just gotta get through Saturday's storm and back to some cold weather. Guns ablaze. Some TV news crew filming. Maybe I'm on somewhere? 1 Quote
momskeeztoo Posted December 21, 2017 Report Posted December 21, 2017 I'm just leaving. It's pretty nice, I'd stay,but gotta get vehicle worked on before winter really sets in, and I'm unwilling to give the car up. Everything is pretty nice today. Quote
GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted December 21, 2017 Report Posted December 21, 2017 Nice report. I guess you didn't have anybody to drink beers with in the lot today. I'll be up there in about 6 hours. Quote

eaf Posted December 21, 2017 Report Posted December 21, 2017 So, who's in already? Maybe I'll luck out and spot someone. Quote
enjoralas Posted December 21, 2017 Report Posted December 21, 2017 Looks like I'm out for tonight. See everyone this weekend. Quote
theprogram4 Posted December 21, 2017 Report Posted December 21, 2017 I got second civilian chair and rode from 8:30 to 11:00. Great day and I thought conditions were enjoyable. However, I have never seen a mid week non holiday morning this crowded at blue before. 6 pack line went back to the scanners at 10:45. 1 Quote

GrilledSteezeSandwich Posted December 22, 2017 Report Posted December 22, 2017 On the way home. I thought the skiing was good tonight. More to come later. Quote
AtomicSkier Posted December 22, 2017 Report Posted December 22, 2017 I know I'm in the minority, but I love conditions like tonight. Super fast and solid. With sharp edges, it's extremely grippy. Quote
