Attitash Powder Day! 1/18/09

[NHpowderhound]

Resort Skied: Attitash
Date Skied: 1/18/09
Conditions: POWDER!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry gang, no pics for this trip. I forgot the damn thing.
We (me and Ms. Powderhound)left home saturday afternoon to go to my budddy's condo up at Attitash Village for the night since he was unable to make it.
My intention was to skip Attitash and head for Wildcat but I changed plans when Ms.P.H. decided not to ski and hit the hot tub.It was no big deal, I wasn't really to motivated to make the drive anyway.
I got my first chair about 8:20 and it was snowing pretty good with maybey 4-6" of nice light fluffy powder. MMMM!
It started to snow harder and it was really pieling up. By the time I took my last run I was getting it over the knee!
The powder made attitash more enjoyable but I have to say skating the flats in fresh snow between Attitash and Bear Peak S U C K S! The skate to and from sapped 3 more runs out of me. It was puking out and I was done by 1.
Great day out though. Time to knock back a few Mooseheads.

Holy crap, NHPH, I was wondering where you have been! Nice job on the powder day! Doing it with the lady in style, can't beat that.

NHPH,

Not sure if you were able to hit Grandstand or Idiot's, but they got my pick for Runs of the Day. I hit Idiot's twice and Grandstand 3 times (well, twice from the top, one more from the cross-over from Moat), and I hit a few spots of no less than knee- to thigh-deep. Just great snow, not much traffic, outstanding conditions. I really thought there would be more people there, especially for a powder day on a long weekend.

Good trip report, will be visiting Attitash next week, maybe I'll have some new POW!

Kickstand

Idiots was good and so was Ptarmigan. I hit one "glade" on BP side which still had some uglies lurking under the snow. Grandstand was one of the best runs I agree. I gave up on the slow triple and just rode the HS Quad.
