The product is piling up after this stretch of recent accumulation. A Canyon closure backed up The Faithful, but they were stoked and ready to get after it. Precipitation was still ongoing as the day began, and the new essence was just what the doctor ordered after that long stretch of firmer conditions. The underlying substrate was fairly smooth, so that makes for a much better ride with this new cushion.
There is more snow in the forecast, and more areas waiting to open. Tomorrow, look for more great conditions on the hill with strong attendance. I’ll be pulling out the wider sticks to take advantage of that deeper pack. The prepared lines will be offering ego turns top to bottom with most folks working the off trail. Keep an eye out. The coverage is much improved and those traverses and entrances are getting better, but caution is still advised and a precise approach will pay dividends. Stay Frosty!!!
