Crystal - 04/28 Yee Haa! Finally Spring! was created by ddk
Ski Report - Short version...Biig Sun, Big Soft real spring snow, Big Grooming ...maybe, but good enough in the hamster treadmill zone, Big Warm, Big fun, fair Bigish crowd...had to ride REX with random folks! Dang me! what I have been waiting for all season...a real spring fun day!
To many words report - OUCH! Finally, a really really nice spring day...heard lots of "hope its not to sticky" and I be leaving when it gets "sticky!" NOT! I did do a One Ball warm wax last night and gotta say it worked for the happy Coombas! Sticky Not ! Almost corny fun - MIFB was working on baby bumps and fun slush! Off piste? Was kinda lazy but my last half dozen runs where trying to lay a ski line down GV Bowl just past the last tower! And it was fun working on it....all that work led to MIFB which was, gotta say getting better all day till my last run down it. Day was totally Hamster Heaven in the never-ending treadmill from a photo Opp down LS/BS looking at the newest biggest every year slide of PB to a mostly rest of my old typical lazy hamster zone of GV to MIFB till that last pause at the top of REX to ride the Bucket down. Ready for a repeat tomorrow!!!
More snow across the mountain than I ever remember seeing (but I have bad memory retrieval issues sometimes...). For the last REX Friday, it was a awesome last day....The newest BIG patrol bombing of PB was impressive...more unapproved tree removal! BP area will be totally free of trees in the not to distant future. Great day with a very happy crowd, including the hamster.
Other - Got usual parking spot behind the Special folks area...when I left the pay lot was full and the free bottom half was also full, B had cars to the shuttle stop, C had a lot of cars all over the place...so a fair-sized crowd. Drive up and down for me was early enough to be pleasantly at speed with a few elk sightings. Heard on the tube that 410 had a bad situation (for Binx the situation word)....sounded like Dead Mans Curve? just down from Fed Forest...sad!
