With warm temps at high elevations, bright Sun shining in a clear sky, and wide open groomers, it was a perfect day of Sunny Cruisin’. Mineral Basin was wide open and the Groomers were dry, chalky, and very consistent. I did a few Baldy Chairs to take advantage of the empty lines and delightful corduroy that was going off there. There were a couple of Snow Guns building up the base and they were depositing wonderful Gun Powder way down the slope. I had to dial it back a bit to get more out of each turn.
The front of the hill was offering dry chalky lines as well and when the Sun rose up higher, it illuminated the Dance Floor and the full on rock and roll was happening. Breakfast at The Forklift was a treat with a full crew and lots of laughs.
Tomorrow, look for more inversion warmth up on the hill. The Groomers will be offering the smoothest lines, however, the High North is still holding the dry cold smooth as the traffic has been light. I will be looking for more sunny empty lines first thing in Mineral Basin. See you there dark and early for the wide open carpets of AHHHH!!! Don’t touch that dial!!!
