BLUE BIRD

1-02-22 by dave

It was a clear and cold blue bird day, with dry chalky powder on the prepared lines, and stiff cold lines on the off trail sections. The Road to Provo opened for the opening bell offering a range of consistency with some wind affected and dense sections that kept you on your toes. The temps were very cold and that made the snow quite slow.

While a lot of folks showed up for the day, the lines on the lifts moved quickly and it was pretty much ski on and quick access up the hill. The Groomers were deluxe, with perfect traction after all the accumulation of the past days. That was a very nice treat.

Conditions are fantastic wall to wall and you can find lots of soft snow and still open lines if you use your eyes and go a bit off the beaten path. Tomorrow, look for another still cold morning with great conditions, and I expect the traffic to be even lighter. The off trail is still offering nice soft lines, but the cold is setting up the pack a bit. Interference patterns are beginning to build, but still there is smooth runnings over most of the open areas. See you there for the morning fun. IBBY!!!
