Crystal - 02/22

Great day, lots of “big” sun, lots of east winds to cool things down, great grooming as usual – still tough at the bottom of REX.  Crowd not to bad other than GVex. – only did that early and once at the wrong mental time (slow singles line).  Did some of my old age fastest runs down Lucky! Primo early fast.  Cold conditions kept the slopes I did nice and icy and rock hard firm!  Grooming was pretty perfect again.  No lift lines on REX. Lots of happy fast folks that I skied with today. Left early with way to much vert.

Other – Soup…who knows?  Lots of folks at top waiting for the empty tables.  Less than yesterday. Great views everywhere. Pay lot to big as usual, rest of A lot full, with some flow towards C and something? in B.  Easy drive up and down – other than dodging the random Elk.  After two days staying away from GV since REX was spinning…tomorrow will be a nice lazy casual day with #1 in the Valley. No check check to start this post, just for Johnny!

We did fast laps on GV early until the crowds built, then lot's of Lucky Shot runs until the snow at the bottom was trashed. Back up to GV with no lines. Best runs of the day were right side of Green Valley down the moguls between the 2 race courses, then to the bumps on the left side of West Face, and finally into the far right side of Ann's. Many loops.

Oh, and to the douche bag that rifled my pack and stole my Oakley's, please put them back the next time you see my pack on the hill. Karma's a bitch.

only when it works against me.

No way you could call today a Big Day™, or a Great Day (patent pending), or a Fun Day™, but we did have a lot of more Silly Fun© than legally allowed, sliding the firm-to-icy groomers and then converting to even sillier mogul runs mid-day. As DDK is older than I am, the Luckyshot Screamer Fun (again Patent Pending) was a little lower as masses of who-knows-where-they-are-going humanity kept the speed down.The snow is in horrible shape so BE PREPARED and bring your low expectations to the limited runs (aka Green Valley). Warming temps will open more snow (aka Green Valley) to softness.
