Well it’s another powder day in the ‘Boat and a sleeper at that. After being spoiled this past weekend with over a foot of snow, the four inch report this morning scared off the crowds and provided run after run of unspoiled freshness, with no lines at all!
After noticing a late opening on Storm Peak Express we headed up Burgess Creek and over to Sundown for a fast, fresh run through Keith’s ridge, followed by Sunshine Lift Line and over to Fawn and Pump House Trees. A quick ride up South Peak and we had firs tracks down Westside. What a way to start the day. It was so nice that we repeated the same lap to South Peak, and then we conquered the mighty Rolex. The next few runs we spread out all over the mountain and were very impressed with the current coverage. The mountain is indeed in fantastic shape. With just enough snow to earn some face shots and no crowds, it was a perfect day on Steamboat.
