RCs video is worth a thousand words. The untracked snow quality today around those parts was, well, perfect. Even. Cover. Sunny. Empty.
I had work so I got to the hill at 12:30. We dropped in for our first run at 1 on cliffs. By 3 :30 we were back to the car. We lapped that pitch anbd skiied Encore, and Tumbler as well. Pretty much everything had about 3-5 tracks on it. There were about 6 other people about. We did one lap with my friend Grayson. By the time we left everything had abput 7 tracks on it and inverness was getting worked as well. You could go back tomorrow and prolly ski most trails w/o crossing many track. Hope it stays cold for this next little refresher coming thru.

Stunning day and evening in and around the Mtns in waitsfield/warren. Sun, perfect temps. Amazing snow. Laps of freshies. Beer, Burger with bacon and cheddar. IPAs. Early bed time.
Enjoy some pictures.

Nice!

I could not quite put words on the snow quality today at MRG. The best I came up with was sublime and smooth. I mentioned to Nhski today while riding a lift that I am not sure which I like better, snow like today or blower. Both have their merits. While blower is pretty excited, today's silky smooth powder was zen like for lack of better words.

Both is better. But I would rather get this now. Blower on no base can be scarry. A foot of blower lake effect on top of this for Wednesday would be nice.
My description for the day.....82degree butter.
