Not the sexiest mountain the world, but the weather was just too good to not spend an excellent few hours outdoors. I was hoping today would be a Gore day (and I'm sure it was awesome as well) but my schedule didn't work out for a longer drive. Stupid work. And truth be told, if you're looking to get a few turns in, their $30 two hour ticket that includes breakfast or lunch is unbeatable locally. The weather (38 degrees), not a cloud in the sky, was unbeatable. The snow held up nicely and oddly enough, I didn't encounter any ice whatsoever. The edges were filled with excellent snow. Spent most of the day riding the Northwest Apex chair. There were literally 10 cars in the parking lot and the run of the day was AOA. Some trees were skiable but I think most of the glades were roped off. Now my legs are completely shot! Hopefully, a better report next time - but today was really great.
Main Lodge
Booting up view from the car - 30 second walk to the main lodge.
Triple Chair to the top, triple to the race course
Northwest Lodge area - Apex Chair. Look at all the traffic on the mountain Packed!
Couple milk runs to get the legs working properly.
Huge military plane did a fly over - you can see the speck in the sky as I caught it too late.
Blades did well for me today!
Trail of the day...
Some wide open spaces.
