There was a big blue sky this morning, with out a cloud in it. The moon was riding high over Twin Peaks and Hidden peak, making for some amazing shots of the back side of the hill. Temps were a tad cold, but the bright Sun and still air made laps in Mineral Basin delightful. Wind slab lines were awaiting those who were after some back country quality, and the dry chalky feel made it well worth the effort. On the front of the hill, the air seemed much colder, and the Snow Guns were blazing, leaving some delightful Gun Powder lines down the steep sections that were velvet smooth and had plenty of traction.
Light traffic on all sides of the hill made for hot laps that kept you on your toes to keep up with the subtle variation from glazed sections to dry chalky goodness.
Tomorrow, look for the beginning of big changes as the pattern is changing. We may squeeze some Sunshine out the morning session before clouds ahead of the next system makes the light go flat. The good to go lines of today will still be good to go, so even with flat light, you can count of the consistency there. Be checking out the pack for intel going into this cycle. Remain Standing!!!
