Couldn’t ask for a better day what with the Seahawks playing and a lot of folks staying home to watch the game….hope they keep winning so I can ski more crowd free days.
Ski conditions report – Lots of sun early, no early crowd, had one great groomed run down IceFerkBerg (perfect) and that ended the groomer day for me. Couple of inches new and a lot more in some places. Did a number of runs in CBasin just before the Southback gate, very nice smooth and soft, then one run out past the low Throne gate, very nice and deep still out there (what was the Saturday crowd doing?). Did the typical multiple for me PB/BP runs. Didn’t seem to bad today getting off the top of HC – all that snow moving that Kim K was doing on Friday helped. Found out from someone that the last Doors were doable and yes they were. Suffered a run in Memorial and Sunnyside ( to pick up two beer cans I noticed), not to good skiing. Valley bowl skier right was still nice. Did more than one EH run for some other folks – yes it is good, soft, wide, and pretty fast and easy…but I had the wrong wax for I5 – about as sticky and slow as I’ve ever seen it. No lift lines anywhere all day. It was snowing a little when I left.
Other non ski conditions report for those that care – soups were Roasted Red Tomato Ancho (RRTA) and Harvest Butternut Squash (HBS). Pay lot did not make enough effort today, C full, B maybe 2/3s full. Very nice bonus day.
