PERFECT BREAK

5-06-22 by dave

There was a light freeze overnight and the front of the hill was pretty crisp to start out the morning, but Mineral Basin was breaking right for the opening bell. The corn goodness on the smooth sections was amazing and perfect.

Neil sent this shot of the sweet corn goodness found out on Lewis and Clark.

The high traverse out toward The Bookends and beyond was offering big mountain smooth lines that were carvalicious and really rare.

A view from Ski Patrol Gully that Jake sent lets you see the soft surface on the traverse.

The front of the hill was still needing a bit more time, but really came alive around 10AM, with the groomers offering smooth consistent lines that let you get jiggy with your turns.

Doc, dialing in some perfect Sorbet out on Ski Patrol Gully.

Tomorrow, look for another early break as the pack really absorbed a lot of heat down deep and will get soft much quicker with the warm overnight temps due to the high clouds that have been flowing through. There will still be great lines to find and smooth sections of the hill to dial in. Follow the Sun and hit those North and West faces last. That was the ticket today and it really made the day. Keep it tight!!!
