Jay Peak 3/20/11

I went to Jay Peak today with the Nacski bus from Woburn. The Anderson Station was almost like a Grand Central Station between the BSSC and the Nacski ski buses both leaving at the same time (BSSC ran to Sunday River). Though, went with Nacski since Jay was $62 since I was one of the first 25 customers to book. Pretty much fast and firm all throughout the mountain, which meant it was another groomer day. Though, we had some nice softening later in the day, which made way for some nice bumps on a small area of JFK. Otherwise, I couldn't find much bumps that didn't have problems with thin coverage/icy areas/being too firm. I had a nice ride back watching Grown Ups on the bus.

Here are some pics. Last one is me taking a pic of Canon from the bus.

I was there Saturday. The weather was amazing as morning snow showers cleared off to beautiful clear skys. I took over 100 shots with the camera because I've never seen Jay without clouds. The morning was religated to the groomers as it was cold but that March sun worked its magic on the Bonaventure/Jet side by about 1:30. The Freezer side stayed hard (actually my son said the Glades on the far right (looking up) softened too but I didn't get there) but we found soft snow in the sun on Lift Line and Powerline. Regret I did not get back over to UN but the legs were cooked.
