Today was friggen awesome...Made snow on temptor last night....Powder bumps,radicalness I tell ya!! Better than yesterday....not too crowded!!! Gary and I ripped temptor for a while then took a run on gunny to get a feel for next month....Gary pulled some snowboarder out of the woods on temptor and I helped some kid who double ejected....Gary left to ski with his neighbor...and I kept hitting temptor till I couldnt see straight. Too bad none of the crew couldnt make it ....today was fantastic

excellent day at sundown. I love the conditions this weather produces. I skied non-stop 12 - 4:30. No lines to speak of, a few minutes wait was the worst i saw. After 3 it was pretty much ski on. Hooked up with steve after a bit, hit temptor every run except one venture over to GB with steve and one run down Tom's Treat with my neighbor and his kids.

bumps on temptor were a lot of fun. top and bottom skied very differently. The right kicker was open but i didn't hit it. the way the bumps were leading up to it didn't let me get enough speed to do anything but roll over it.

every run down temptor was followed with a trip over to the Exhibition bumps. crowded there but you could time it well enough to get down without stopping. The sun was baking those bumps all day. a little mud came through on a right side line but it was loads of fun. by 4:00 the slush was getting thick in there.

Great late march conditions :spin:

Temptor was still good at night, nice and powdery. Did 3 runs down, none all that good, but snow was forgiving. A bunch of runs down Canyon, Nor'Easter, and Gunny rounded out the night.
