It was a beautiful but quite a cold day,- with bright Sun, soft snow, and wide open Groomers that were full on Rock and Roll. Mineral Basin started off the day with velvet smooth corduroy that had been freshened by the recent installment and blended into the mat. You could explore your inner Ligety to your heart’s content. On the front of the hill, the Anderson’s Hill-Lower Primrose combination had been buffed to a smooth buffed carpet and covered with some transported dust that just put it all over the top. I had to lap that several times before breakfast. I usually take a shot of the Morning Crew, but they took one of me instead. The Exotic Trees opened after Noon today, and it offered very nice soft snow with the underlying substrate having a long rolling cadence. I lapped that line twice just to make sure it was fully explored. I worked that Primrose Path section my last Tram to find it still smooth as can be and the dust had kept building up. Here is a shot of a cornice out on a Lewis and Clark sojourn. Tomorrow, look for more great snow sport sliding on all sides of the hill. The temps. remained quite cool all day and only the very direct aspects took a hit. The High North and most other oblique aspects should be offering very good snow off trail. I did do a number of-off the beaten path- lines here and there, finding fairly smooth sections everywhere. It will be warming up, but the early Trams could have a nip in the air. See you there for the ground pounding fun. Speed Safely!
