Snow Sports Action from the Mountain to Your Computer

Friday, April 9th 1999
Today was the day with perfect light textured snow everywhere. The parking lot filled most of the way up, but the lift access untracked goods could be found until late afternoon.

The calender may say it is spring; don't believe it. It has been DUMPING up here in the mountains! Monday and Tuesday were super deep and then Wednesday was only a couple of feet deep. Then thursday was one of those snorkle depth lower mountain powder days again. Typical for the storms this year, this one did not start until the early morning. So your second run was deeper than your first. Then repeat the process until your tired, wet, or the lifts close. Face shots in the trees and jib lines with tracked out hits and soft landings were the order of the day. There has been that mellow late season feeling with less crowds and plenty of deep freshies. So come get it while it is good.

April sunshine is strong even when the sun does not come out, so feel free to wear sunscreen.
