There was an initial push for the Tram this morning, but the crowd was quickly dispersed and walk on Trams were the rule for most of the day. Extensive Grooming had been done once again, providing some extremely exciting out side the box lines that made you pay attention to the new approach a smooth line will give you. The off trail was still offering soft lines, but there was a bit of the old static reflecting through, making it a tad tricky here and there. Here is a shot from the peak that frames the peaks down range in a new light.
Light got flat later in the day as the echos of the approaching storm began to move in. The prepared lines held up all day long and the ground pounding pace required a smooth approach to keep the stamina on point. Tomorrow, expect a day of storm riding, as the front is predicted to hit in the morning and we’ll have to see where it goes. Stay with the trees for definition, and work the prepared lines for guaranteed smoothness during those times when you are just guessing. The hill is in prime shape and all the lines are wide open and good to go. Expect interference patterns in the high traffic areas, but the static and rumble should be filling in with accumulation. See you there for the weather charge. IBBY!!
