It was a clear and cold morning, with some brisk ridge top winds blowing and smoothing some aspects. All sides of the hill had been given a nice smoothing effort, with the addition of snowmaking efforts, provided some ground pounding fun on all sides of the hill. Traffic was light with walk on Trams happening right out of the Chute. The pack is getting quite firm, with some slick spots here and there, but there is plenty of traction happening to keep the line moving. It was great to have the Sun so bright out in Mineral Basin making the details crystal clear. It is nice to see these details after so many days of shear guess work in the super flat light episodes.
Tomorrow, look for more ground pounding fun. I expect the traffic to remain light so maximum vertical will be easy to tap into. Good early morning lines in Mineral Basin will available, with special emphasis on the wind buffed sections out off of Powder Paradise. See you there dark and early for the hot laps on the velvet carpets!! Stay Frosty!!!
