Marc's Public Blog - Skiing / Snowboarding / Snow

Once arrived, it was very dry:

The next day, the storm didn't hit, so I skipped most of the day and only went for a couple of runs before they closed 6 again for wind. Snow conditions were terrible and confirmed I was right to otherwise skip the day:

the inch of fresh snow looked ok, but it was so much crud underneath....

The 3rd day, 8 inches in the report, which sounded good, but most was apparently wet, made a base and it was only 1.5" of actual powder:

long line for turns out, not a lot of pow ;)

it wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either

you can see it wasn't very deep pow

still, nice bluebird

eagle bowl just opened for the chair 4 rush

but let's wait at chair 2, first :)

it was easy to tell the new snow was not deep

never seen the wave os bare in february

the first runs down the backside are always pretty

While Day 3 didn't have a lot of fresh snow, it felt nice. By day 4, it was snowing hard and finally we had real inches of snow in the morning for first run:

a bit of a line for 6, but nothing terrible

finally some powder

10 opened reasonably early and the now was great

short line for 10, well worth it

came down this

then time for chair 4

good snow

My last run of the day in Fawn Ridge, beautiful snow, it was worth waiting the week for friday:
