Classic closing day, fresh snow and sunshine, did a few laps in silver basin. The Southback was pretty well skied out by 2PM. Snow was pretty good on North aspects. A feew pics follow

There was also a first(?) annual Dummy Downhill which was pretty amusing, although the 1PM start cost a SB lap for sure.

Nice pictures on the Dummy Downhill-
We missed it because we were skiing the powder!
After the lifts closed we finished Sunday off with 3 long skins in the park.

Closing day was great, but Saturday was off the hinge.
It was etch-a-sketch skiing! Every lap in the North provided a fresh untouched foot of blower powder at low temps.
Constant snow all day, winds were strong enough to cover the tracks, but blew the right way to keep the chairs spinning.
Great way to end the season-the same way it started!
Mother Nature gave back more than enough pleasure this seaon!
