The snow was like April. Damp and heavy, but as usual, I liked it. It iced and drizzled on Saturday night. Friends skied on Saturday and said the conditions were a "Ten". Sorry I missed that. The biggest factor coloring the day today, however, was the fog. It was soupy all day above Lift 7 mid-station. Sometimes quite dense. One of my friends found it disorienting. Lower trails were clear, however. It was about 40 degrees today - luck for me because I accidentally left my coat in the car because I was in a hurry to get my kid into the race program and was running a little late. I managed to get by in just a base layer, a long sleeve 50/50 shirt, and a fleece vest (fairly thick ski pants, helmet, neck warmer & gloves). No pics or vids today because my cam was in the pocket of my jacket!

PS - we have been blessed with a lack of lift lines at Belleayre all season. The only lines were at Superchief (I don't know about beginner lifts 1 & 2). Lift 7 and Tomahawk were mostly no lines or maybe less than a minute a few times.
