WIND WORK

2-11-22 by dave

The wind was blowing once again this morning and had been blowing overnight, scouring some areas and depositing accumulations of dust in others. Large pools of dust had settled into the nap of many of the prepared corduroy, which provided sumptuous carpets of AHHHHH on many aspects. The Sun was working, but the air still had a nip in it, however, it was evident the day was going to warm up. A Freeride Contest was been held on upper Silver Fox and there was plenty of activity on the Peruvian side of the hill.

Perfect wind deposited smooth dust on one of the down wind sections.

Traffic was fairly light all morning long, though it did build up for the Mineral Basin offerings. Traffic built up on the front of the hill in the afternoon, but the lines were still wide open and fun. Tomorrow, look for more great lines of smooth wind deposited dust, with the South and West facing aspects softening later in the day. Traffic will be brisk, so stay ahead of the crowd which is easy to do. The hill is in great shape and coverage is good. That contest will still be going on, so expect some congestion in the finish area. I’ll be taking the day off to recoup for the coming week. Stay Frosty!!
