Hi All,
Pleased to advise I’m back on skis after dealing with a damaged big toe
issue for close to a year.
It was a great morning to be on the slopes with a sun drenched blue sky and
temps from 9 to 24 now. It is cloudy now however. The mountain made a nice
recovery from the warm weather and the holiday record breaking crowds at or near
10,000 Saturday & Sunday. All front side trails except Racer’s (frozen bumps
and closed) were groomed flat with some granular & powder on the surface. It
was a bit noisy and good edges helped but it was easy skiing with no lines at
the Flyer. D and F were closed. The top of East Side had some guns making nice
fluffy powder with excellent visibility due to the strong sun. No one run was
any better than another. I did not go west or north due to shadows and darkness
plus my legs could only handle so much on day one. Claire’s is getting a heavy
dose of snow making. The rest of the week through Friday morning looks to be a
copy of today which is rare for this season.
