Storm clouds moved East with this next impulse, but the flow seemed to be moving up out of the South, bringing warmer temps and light flurries to the hill. It was nice not have to turn on the E Gloves with the warmer temps. The prepared lines were soft and carvelicious as anticipated, and the warmer temps gave them an extra feel of luxury underfoot. The off trail is stiffening up with the higher temps as well, and a more forceful direct line is needed to blast through the variations. With all the extra traffic on the hill, the interference patterns are beginning to build back in, so keep that in mind and look a bit beyond the closely accessed lines for more consistent texture.
Tomorrow, look for continued variable visibility as more weather pumps up out of the South, bringing warm temps and light flurries. I’ll be looking for those prepared lines on the hill for fresh corduroy, which has been a delight the past couple of days. Yesterday’s offerings of magic carpets had that big mountain back country feel when they were fresh and wind buffed. Got to take the perfect where you find it. Don’t forget to SIZZLE!!!
