Haven't posted in awhile

Today was sunny in the morning, then cloudy in the afternoon, there was a slight breeze with temps in the 20's. Conditions are pretty good. Double Bitter, Winters Way, Bubblecuffer and Ripsaw were bumps with packed powder/hard packed and a little ice in between. Binder and Glancer were both incredible and fast. All groomed trails today were amazing and horseshoe was still mostly corduroy at noon.

Conditions are getting better

Saturday's ice storm really made a mess icing up all the lifts, Sunday the highest lift was Long side Double Runner, yesterday the maintenance guys got Whiffletree and Spillway West going and today King Pine, The Superquad and Spillway East opened. Timberline is still being deiced but should be open at some point tomorrow. Anything ungroomed is firm and not really skiable. the groomers have done a great job, considering how much rain we got, there is not a whole lot of ice, but there is some, so be careful. Today we had temps in the 20's, it was sunny and only a little wind. This week is actually quite busy.

2 Perfect days

Yesterday and Today were almost perfect, I say almost because there is still a lot of crust on the ungroomed. Temps in the 30's, sunny and no wind both days and incredible conditions on all the groomers. The backside reopened yesterday and I skied it today, it was fairly decent, a bit firm but very skiable and everything is buried. Another storm starting tonight into tomorrow, it just keeps getting better. I skied Rookie River today, there's lots of snow but you've gotta be very careful because of the crust.

More Snow

We got a few more inches of snow today, a mix of sleet and snow, it was like carving through sugar. It was windy today, The Superquad was on wind hold all day. Tomorrow looks nice, temps near 30, sunny and very little wind. We could see another storm this weekend.

Another Awesome Day

Today was another great day, it was mostly cloudy, but we did see the sun a few times. It was warm but very humid and windy, Timberline, Spillway East and King Pine ended up on wind hold. Conditions probably could not get any better, everything is powder, we did see some rain today, nothing major and it did not affect the snow. The bumps are all big and very soft. Ripsaw and Winters Way were amazing all day and the glades are all buried.
