17/18 Padded Seats

mediocre lil storm laid down a pretty blanket yesterday
skiing on the new snow was not half bad, parking better.

LoT4 was interesting today and the source lake dog park trail was a joke.
NWAC, bless their heart, set up a coffee kiosk directly below the water tower.
a dog or a set of snow shoes and up they went with a courtesy cup of joe.
I hope they explained that the Alpental Valley is not mediocre avy terrain.
uphill traffic outnumbered downhill skier traffic by@37%, lots of new poop.

cold but refreshing for my faith in skimanity.

And fresh tracks at sweep...

From 9 until 10:30 it was a country club with about 40 or so, very mediocre
Haven't cut the traverse out on Lower I since the 80s probably (ok there's always a patrol track)
Way softer and smoother then anticipated, great turns
Merry Christmas, the present is always the best

the top layer of duff acquired a fog freeze last night.
