Belleayre was awesome today. About 4 inches of new POW. The best part is they did not groom out the powder. Nice variety of bump trails on Winisook, Tongora, Onetora, Yahoo, Utsi.... , and Seneca. Truly awesome day. Some sleet came in after lunch time. Then around 2pm it got a little wet but only at the top of the mountain. All this for $20 and the place was empty. Go figure. Who said awesome skiing has to be expensive. You can spend a $1000 to go out west for a week of skiing and end up with not one snowflake. Here you get awesome powder skiing for $20. : Last day for Belleayre's $20 lift tickets is Friday. 1/30.

I think it was more than 4"...maybe at first chair but by the time I left around 1 it was at least 6" if not more (sleet was starting to compress the pow). Good Day and so worth $20 for 3-4 hours of powder skiing/riding.

Yup got to know when to jump on those powders days when they do come. If only for a few hours of fun. Probably a great foot massage today.
