IN THE DEEP

Well powder hounds, today was a deep day but not one for everybody. The warmer temperatures made for some heavy snow that made us stick to the steeper pitches all day. Our first couple of runs were challenging as we broke through the top layer, but once we got to Three O’clock (with a fresh groom two days before) we were happy campers! The deep butter snow combined with the nice steep pitch made for an incredible run. And that was just a warm-up. As some of you may know, heavy snow turns moguls into everybody’s friends. Hero bumps I like to call ‘em. And as we skied from run to run; sideburn to sunset to lights out, storm peak face to cyclone to drop out, and then over to twister and four points lift line, the bumps got bigger and softer and turned us all into amazing skiers. And while the tourists were not happy at all with the conditions, the locals were as happy as ever.

The heavy snows are always a welcome sight as we reach this point in the season. More trails open up and more rocks and sticks get buried until spring. If you haven’t been out the last couple of days, it’s definitely time to get out and ski all the runs that you weren’t sure were ready to be skied. Have a great day and we’ll see you IN THE DEEP!
