Video Ski Sundown - 12/26/2007

Date(s) Skied: Wednesday, 12/26/2007, 9 am - 12:15 pm

Resort or Ski Area: Ski Sundown, Connecticut

Conditions: Fresh groomed manmade and LSGR on the flats. Some dry, some wet manmade, hardpack, ice & dirt in the bumps.

Trip Report: Today was to be a quick hitter on the bumps. Got started at 9 am and noticed the bumps on Nor'easter were starting to shape up nicely. Too bad for the rain the other day. They would be in great shape otherwise.

Nonetheless, they were coated with fresh snowmaking, but in some spots it was very wet and tacky snow that would tend to grab your skis. The lines started to ski in as the morning progressed though and the late morning runs with the sun starting to hit NE were especially nice. Skied with bvibert most of the day and several runs also with MrMagic. Nice guy and a great skier.

So....Nor'easter surived the rain event and with some more snowmaking it should snap back nicely. Great session.

Got a bunch of vid, but probably won't get it worked up until later tonight.
