Thanks for letting me ride along with your crew, Silas. Incredible day that just got better as it wore on. Even the thoroughfares were powder runs in the late afternoon. And Alpy graciously kept running until 10, appreciated! -EW

Skied all day and hardly saw anyone . . . e-Gate lines were skiing like untracked by end of day!

A sign of a good(great) snow year: bottomless pillow lines in the dead center of Trash Can.

Well, I did see Mofro - hard to miss him in his fluorescent backup jacket!

Ha...don't often ride lifts, but noticed the 80s style neon is enjoying a rebirth, a couple characters lighting it up, one rocked a neon orange fartbag...

Another fact that enhanced my day: Pro Ski Seattle (adeptly) put me in some phatty demos, a new Blizzard ski called the Gunsmoke, that was perfect for yesterday--the things did smoke!  If I were to man up for an alpine rig next season, they'd be on my shortlist.

just be careful of leavitts leap at very bottom which must be like 40 feet to running water. that littledeep hole is a serious trap.
i had a mofro siting as well

Was one of the better days so far this year no doubt. I had to split at 1 and it looked(and sounds) like it got even better from then. My goup skied some steep cliffs that were skied off just because we could and never have before......lol.

While it has been a roller coaster all year, it sure has been a good one. Just gotta be there when the time is right.
