April 8 & 9, 2010, Bachelor Powder Patches was created by jhamaker
Windy on Thur, so I skied nordic in the trees. They are still grooming folks!
Friday I skied all day lift-serve. 6-12" of fluff. Supposedly one of the best summit-chair days this year.
The powder was blown off ridges and into the bowls. Due to low attendance and slow hikers the caldera bowl was not skiied out untill noon, by wich time my legs were rubber and I could not see strait. Damn those lifts are fast! It took three rides for me to eat my lunch!
After noon I did full runs top to bottom. The bottom still had powder in the shade, cream in the sun.
Finnished w/ fun wind-scoops in the (plastered) trees on the W side.

Ooh, Jealous. I consider myself lucky if NWX is open on a powder day. To get the whole mountain with blower is nothing less than awesome, nice timing!
