Hello skiers,
Here comes the next snow storm. It is snowing very lightly late this afternoon at Alpine. Today was a blue bird day at Alpine with plenty of bright sunshine and zero wind interference. We spent most of the day tracking up the remaining untracked powder in the High Traverse areas with the best foot deep light powder way out under Grouse Rock, and in the out-of-bounds areas known as Field of Dreams. The snow was excellent again today with plenty of super snow to pound against my chest and occasionally fly over a shoulder. Palisades was awesome with soft cut up powder making it easy to slide down this filled in slope. Toward the end of the day I noticed the snow changing consistency and crusting over just a little in the areas facing the sun or in the trees.
In addition, the soft snow on some well packed skier runs, such as Yellow Trail were well bumped by late afternoon and rather a challenge for the tired legs. There were plenty of smiles and yahoo’s going around all day today. It was just an awesome day of skiing today.
Enjoy your day. Andy
