Padded Seat Update 16/17

Another Sliver day where the pack started firm but softened slowly.

Sweet lil Friday riding with friends on soft snow and mild air.

Surfed Silver this morning through the sun breaks and snow showers until the chair went tits up at 2, then scuttled over to Alpental for the remainder of the afternoon. Lower mtn had softened playfully without much stickyness but everything above the Fan was still locked-up tight. One white knuckledragging lap down l'Internationale was enough for me, although I did find the turns in Snake Dance to be of acceptable quality. Tomorrow's shaping up to be a great training day, see you on the slopes!

2 loaded right away, Nash Gate swung open around 9:30
With no reason to stay inside the ropes, we found ourselves repeatedly on the outside of them
Enjoying the outdoors in Washington on a gorgeous spring day with a sufficient amount of new in which to play
Bell to bell was the call, with a last run all the way from the top of 5456 for some 261 proper fun
Thanks to everyone who came out to have fun in the sun!

What a bonus day, with sun/snow/Nash gate
Wish I had my GoPro on, but didn't think it would be THAT good
So just one shot, of my first 2 laps in the bowl
Before I was 3rd down DD, and 1st down GS > Big Trees

Good weekend of powder to slush with a little bit of everything between and a nice mix of clouds, flurries and full-on sun!
Excellent company, solid attendance and hopefully enough excitement and fun to make it through another operations-less workweek.
