A high cloud deck shrouded the Sun for the morning session. The light was very flat, and while the visibility was good, the details on the slope were very difficult to discern. The Groomers were offering the smooth lines that helped make up for the variable light. The Sun did make an appearance around Noon, though there were periods with some high clouds moving through. I got this shot of Timp. on the early Lewis and Clark sojourns. It is such a huge peak and has been there a very long time.
The Exotic Trees opened without fanfare and the lines went begging. The wind had spared those aspects and it felt soft and deep, however, it did make for a slow motion feeling. Here is a shot of me that Mikey M took on the first lap.
Tomorrow, look for a weak weather system to be moving through. We can expect visibility issues, but the Groomers will provide the solid smooth consistency that will let you dial in your inner Ligety. The off trail is still stiff overall, but the cover is good and you will find many areas filled in with the last installment. Traffic will be light once again and maximum vertical will be easy and fast to rack up. Speed Safely!!
