Blew outta work around 2, and was on the hill by 2:40 looking for some of my crew. Bout 3 gotta text to meet them over at chair 4 (should've known) for some laps on Zeus and Trojan. Zeus was BLOWER!!!! Completely filled in, knee deep POW and it was LIGHT--the kinda stuff we rarley get around here. Skiers left was SA-WEET 'cause you could pop in & out of the woods. Oh and can you say refills??? Wind was pumpin' it in, fresshies every trip down. Spent an hr or so there then headed over to chair 1 to check out the Olympian---not open yet but should've been--man-o-man was it deep in there. Lots of hootin' & hollerin goin' on---nothing like poaching the big "O" at dusk. I'm not a big fan of afternoon skiing at Greek but storm skiing makes it ok. Was off the hill be 5, had 2-9 beers with the fellas then home by 7.

Man I don't sport a camera---dunno why, I should. Anyway, some good pix on their website www.greekpeak.net if that will help. Been real good start and looks like it's gonna keep gettin better. We got 10 " out of that storm friday, sat into sat night another 4 so sunday was kickass again, and another 2 overnight last night with 2-4 of LE predicted today. I happen to be off on tues so the place will be MINE!!! Those of you who know Greek know how much fun that little place can be when conditions are good.
