17/18 Padded Seats

Well my eyeballs & nostrils are sunburned so I'd say the weekend was quite nice

I'd like a dozen more please.

Oh right, the southern resort is closed, that's why i saw a few extra stickers from their hill. Oh well, could be worse, the sun would have brought 370% more fair weather skiers. The Padded Seats don't need that extra baggage and the Alpentalics don't need the sunshine to ski the Right Side of Nash. The Right Side of Nash was perfectly mediocre and the more it got ridden the better mediocre it got. Gate opened.

Rain corn is plenty fun and helps keep the crowd down. Lots of snow left despite an obvious drop in depth since last week.

The southern resort, although closed was extremely mediocre today. Skinned up to the summit house in drizzle, rain , snow and occasional sun beams. Skied down LS to FQ. Then I skinned up to Campbell Basin and rode Rolling Knolls to base in the rain. Skiing was on thick, sticky , rain soaked mush ... the type they call " character building". Uphill was glorious though. Glad Alpy is skiing well.

nice wordy report, Scotsman!! glad the touratalics are enjoying the open slopes and smooth grooming. must be nice to have all that elbow room. ENJOY!!!

Sunday at Alpental there was an appearance by Frank. A Recent southern resort transplant after 45 years skiing under the shadow of Denny Mountain. So this long time Alpental resident graced our lil hill and non existent groomed runs because the ski area he transplanted to is closed. Great to see Frank, sad that it was under these circumstances.
today was wet mushy and really mediocre, place is getting skied in.
