LIGHT TRAFFIC

11-20-22 by dave

Temps were much warmer this morning and the crowd was very light to start out the day. That made for a much more relaxed atmosphere with lots of room to work and no feelings of concern about extraneous contact. The snow guns were blowing strong, depositing some really lovely Gun Powder that made some of those exposures below the guns silky smooth and carvalicious. I was making non stop runs and worked from one side of the hill to the other and back again.

Grooming efforts have been given to the main lines, which are so firm, they are not going to get worked down even a little.

The hill remains in great shape with the Groomers offering good soft dust that lets you keep things real without having to jam the turns to keep it under control The off trail has set up and is now quite stiff as it has been worked over in most of the available areas. There are, however, little nuggets of goodness stashed away for the observant slider. While the coverage is very consolidated and trustworthy, it is wise to keep a close eye to the lines that are now visible which have some features that will come into play as we get more cover. It is good to know where those features live before hand. Tomorrow, expect continued excellent early season conditions, and warming temps. It will still remain cold enough to keep the pack well refrigerated and consistent. Syrup Won’t Stop ‘EM!!
