Comments CommentsSkied the West Basin and North Peak trails today. Conditions started out as smoothly groomed but, slightly firm snow. However, soft fluffy snow started falling about an hour after opening and continued throughout the day. It wasn’t quite free refills, but it came down heavily at times. It made for some soft turns and a fun day. With the new snow groomed into the mix overnight conditions should be good tomorrow.

It seemed like there more people on the mountain than normal at opening. Two school busses full of kids pulled up at the West Basin shortly after first chair, and lines started to form. I skied over to North Peak and after a couple of runs lines started to form over there too. But surprisingly once the snowflakes started falling the lift lines disappeared.

Rumrunner and Coolidge Street were closed for race training.

Before leaving for the mountain I could see snow guns blasting on Boom Run, Cruiser, and Ripsaw on South Peak. So, I decided not to go over there today. My decision was validated when I shared a chair on North Peak with a gentleman covered head to toe in snow. He said he had started out the day at South Peak. He went down Ripsaw and fell four times due to issues related to the snowmaking.

Weather: The temperature was 10° at opening, and only rose to 19° in the afternoon. Light fluffy snow almost all day. No wind in the morning, light wind in the afternoon.
