STOUT BREEZE

1-13-26 by dave

A stout breeze was blowing on the peaks this morning, transporting what ever wasn’t nailed down and depositing it to make wind buffed lines that were soft and dialable. Mineral Basin was calling with machine worked lines that were fun to work. There was no one over on the Lewis and Clark spans, making for smooth wind buffed runs with no competition. Bonus round there!! On the front of the hill, nicely prepared lines were on tap and were vacant and wide open.

Wind transporting the snow and delivering it to the wide open aprons that will be filling in nicely. Keep your eyes open for some smooth natural carpets.

Traffic was light, and back to back turnarounds were fast and fun. Rumble and interference patterns are building and are wide spread as traffic has been heavy recently. I’ll be looking for some wind to move some cushion in the low lying hollows. Temps will remain warmer, but note that that wind factor really drops the temps on the upper hill. Fresh machine worked lines will be waiting on all sides of the hill, so dial it in and stand on it. Lay it over like Ligety!!
