Resort or Ski Area: Waterville Valley

Conditions: Windy, Windblown Snow, Packed Powder

Trip Report: So today I had to be in Billerica by 3pm. So my options pretty limited to where I could ski and not pay through the nose and still enjoy time on the mountain the decision was Waterville. So I got to the mountain by 8 and was on the lift by 8:05 (thank you liftopia!) and skied non-stop to about 11:15 to warm up and eat and then back on the mountain again by 11:50 to ski until 1pm sharp. I managed to hit everywhere on the mountain except for Tommy's (racing)... Overall the best best conditions were on the sunny side, with the snow being blown onto Gema, and True Grit. Also Sel's and Old Tec held the snow nicely too. All in all a good fix and a little wind burn to go with it too. Some pics as always
