The groomers today were better than yesterday. The bumped trails were either closed or brutally hard ice. That would be a closed upper Yahoo, and a brutal upper Belleayre Run.

It was cold today, and windy in the morning, but the sun was out & in & out. You can see the pics for that.

Lots of snow blowing on the mountain. Looks like they are trying to open more green terrain below Overlook Lodge, and Seneca on the West side.

"Area 57" terrain park opened this afternoon. Somebody was removed from there for a trip to the hospital within an hour.

No lift lines again, except between 2:15 and 3:30 at lift 7, during Superchief's weekly breakdown.

Another great day with lots of runs. Good for the socializing, running some of the stubby slalom courses set up on Yahoo, fast skiing on groomed trails. But I am missing bumps and some natural terrain. That can change tonight because there is a WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY! 4-8 inches starting at about 1 AM overnight and continuing through the day tomorrow!
