The morning dawned cold and very clear, with 100% visibility wall to wall. As anticipated, the new accumulation has been tilled into the mat, and with the cold temps, the snow guns were really kickin’ it out wholesale. Regulator was totally changed, with dry chalky man made product wafting hundreds of feet down hill, offering wonderful velvety quality that made me feel like I was making real turns. What a treat. With the high gun output, some large accumulations have built up, so keeping your speed down in some of those areas is advised.
Traffic was light, however an enthusiastic crew was on deck for the fresh, smooth lines of the morning. The new man made went a long way in covering some of the static that had cropped up, and it also allowed a much more fluid approach to the turns.
Tomorrow, look for more smooth training runs top to bottom. With the continued cold temps, I expect the Gun Powder to be prime for the morning turns on the hill. I just love that smooth velvet feel of that frosty treat. See you there for the early morning lines and silky feel. IBBY!!!
