Well, it finally snowed a bunch last week. A foot Tuesday night, and more Wednesday and Thursday. I had my schedule set up so I could go up on Thursday, but alas, they were not open until Friday. It looked like the lucky folks that went up Friday got a pretty good day in.
By Friday afternoon it cleared up and got warm. Saturday came nice and sunny so we all piled in and went up to the mountain.
Diane preps for her first day out and it's gonna be sunny.
Diane and Dylan stop on By George. Note they only groomed half the run. The other half was heavy powder with a nice layer of icy crust on the top. Not really skiable.
On our way to the lodge.
Diane swooshes down Swoosh.
Conditions on the groomers were very good. Elsewhere, not so good. In the morning the ungroomed runs were frozen death chunks. They started to soften up in the afternoon and were nearly skiable by the time we left. I spent most of the day skiing with Diane, which was loads of fun.
The good news is that the entire mountain is now open. The bad news is that more rain is in the forecast.
What a season!
