Today was a pretty good day on the mountain. Light snow was falling most of the morning. Surfaces were machine groomed soft packed powder. Just a nice morning to be on the hill.
We did a variety of terrain this morning, and it was all good. Highline was politely firm, allowing nice sweeping edge to edge turns. East Falls had nice soft creamy powder. Little check turns on East Falls launched plumes of snow skyward. If the Canyon Chair was running, we might never have left this area, but it wasn't so we made the trek over to Bear Mountain.
At Bear, Upper Wildfire had soft, regular bumps. Bear Trap and Bear Claw sported groomed surfaces with a couple of inches of fluff dressing the top. Cruise Control has a nice small powder bump line developing down skiers left. Everywhere you went, as long as you could stay out of the Monday morning crowds, you found nice skiing on soft surfaces.
According to the local weather forecasters, conditions this week should stay pretty consistent. Through out the week, snow squalls are in the forecast. Just right to keep everything white. Let it snow!
