Hello skiers,
We received up to a foot of nice powder overnight, and then the storm disappeared. Forecasters were calling for heavy snow through today with up to another foot of snow about 7000 feet, but the snow has stopped dropping from the sky and blue is visible above my office. It appears that the clouds have moved north or south of us and left us with a lovely day. Visibility was poor at the top of Summit Chair early this morning, but it is improving with time. The roads are dry, thus the trip up tonight should not be difficult. Perhaps we will have a nice sunny weekend. The snow more dense this morning than it has been, but it skied light butter and was deep enough to give me a face shot or two on the steeper runs. There were not too many skiers waiting this morning at the base of Summit Chair, so fresh tracks were easy and plentiful to find for until later in the morning. I was lucky to have fresh lines down D7, Wolverine, Sunspot, and Low Beaver/Sisters as well as Our Father and Gentian Gully. The temperature is not on the low side, so I assume the snow will set up fairly quickly as the day moves along. The mountain is packed with snow making all runs easy skiing and not as steep or narrow as they were earlier in the season. With over 200 inches of snow at the mid mountain stake, skiing should be good well into May.
Enjoy your day. Andy
