500,000

500,000.

That is a rough approximation of the number of vertical feet I've bagged this year. That's a lot of lift rides and equates to about 95 miles of vert. This is a pretty big number for me, but I've met regulars and Willamette that bag a million or more a year. Of course, they get a lot more days in than me.

Dylan rips the pow in the woods. We didn't get a lot today--maybe 3"--but there is a lot that has accumulated over the past week or so. It was a little funky in the woods; it got kind of warm yesterday on our day off and there were at least two distinct layers of snow. Depending on how hard you weighted on a turn, you might break through one or both layers.

Diane is committed to learning to board. She spent the entire day boarding. Fortunately, the conditions were more forgiving than Saturday--that 3" made it a lot softer.

Dylan gives some professional advice.

then right.

The snow continues to pile up as winter turns to spring. Either way, spring break is looking fine even though it's back to work for me tomorrow.
