Sugarbush Conditions

Maybe it's because I went into the weekend with low expectations, but Saturday morning Sugarbush was pretty good. Sugar snow, edgeable and not much ice on blues. But the wind Saturday really took its toll and blew some areas down to ice by early afternoon.

Probably good spring conditions this week. If I lived closer I'd probably go again.
 
Friday at Mt. Ellen was great in the morning if you stayed on the groomers, they stayed nice and grippy all day as the clouds and wind moved in. Enough to close the lifts a little early around 3 but we had had it by then anyway. Finished the day with a stop at Lawson's and American Flatbread,

Saturday put the sugar in Sugarbush, we ski'd Lincoln Peak as well. Ungroomed trails looked enticing but had you quickly looking to exit back on to the groomers. Mrs SnoBunSki thought the conditions were better than Friday but the flat light and another day of groomers left me somewhat uninspired so we headed back to Lawson's again, we probably crossed paths @Andy_ROC. Dinner at Mad Taco, love the eats and drink in the Mad River Valley!

Sunday we we stopped and ski'd Pico on the way home for more of the same, capping off a nice weekend of getting your carve on some firm cord, great food, company and beers!
Probably good spring conditions this week. If I lived closer I'd probably go again.
Yea all those bumps should be good this week...
