Plan was to meet Xman and Margo at 9:45 at the Gondi. Unlike other rendezvous plans from this weekend, it worked perfectly. Off the Gondi we chose Uncas. It’s steep pitch, and southeast face, makes it great first choice on a spring day.
Once again, I couldn’t resist the trees. But on a cool spring morning, the trails were the place to be. Chatiemac was groomed and rippin. Lies, groomed on Saturday, had nice midsize bumps.
Today was my best groomer day this season, and trees were good too. Temps didn’t go very low last night – 26F at our place. I knew things would soften fast.
I ran into Chuck in the Gondi line and we went up top. The corduroy was phenomenal — carve-able down to a full ski width. We did Chatiemac and Lies. At the bottom of Lies we were both laughing.
I had to abandon the summit to get Neve out of her lesson. The run down to the base was pure elation. It must look odd to see an old teleguy ripping trailwide GS turns on Sunway wailing… Woo Hoo!
