SPRING BREAKING

3-18-24 by dave

It was cool this morning, with a light wind, bright Sun, and lots of amazing prepared machine worked lines that were steep, long, and velvety for the morning session. Lone Star and Silver Dipper had been tilled from the top of each, which made them the go to lines that let you feel each turn’s sweetness. On the front of the hill, Anderson’s Hill and Lower Primrose Path were offering real dry chalky textures with no one around. Walk on Trams were on tap to let you do hot laps and get as much vert as possible. Pipeline opened today and there were a few takers, who were able to find some of the best quality I have every seen to work the descent.

The day warmed up as the Sun rose up in the sky and revealed a blue bird day with total resolution.

A long shot of Pipeline looking fat and challenging.

Tomorrow, look for more great industrial smoothing to be on tap on all sides of the hill. I expect some real crispiness on those direct facing lines, so follow the Sun for best results. The Front side of the hill will be offering the top to bottom lines that will test your stamina in a non stop effort. I expect continued light traffic and good skiing. I skied with the top down today and was very comfortable and I was loving that Spring feel. Stay Frosty!!!
