Ski and Travel Day. Out 9:00 to 12:00 with a 5 minute Boat Burger break; upper twenties, in and out sun, a little wind; skied the Head i.Speed GS Cheaters; 18 runs; unknown vert; 9.46 NASTAR today; the drive from Steamboat to Jackson Hole was beautiful.
Out 8:30 to 12:30 - no break; 2" wet snow overnight; mostly cloudy; temps in the upper twenties; very windy - in fact the gondola and the top of the mountain were closed; skied the Head i.Speed GS Cheater 19's; 25 runs or so, but 20 or more over on NASTAR; 6.77 today at NASTAR - platinum; with the upper mountain closed it seemed very crowded.
Thank God is started to snow this afternoon... lots of old crud, groomed death cookies, and frozen granular - felt like home; out 8:30 to 2:00; about 35 runs - 20 using the short lift next to NASTAR; unknown vertical; skied the Head i.Speed GS Cheater 19's and the Blizzard Brahma's; 10.33 today at NASTAR - Platinium; even disregarding the snow conditions, I'm not all the impressed with the mountain - expansive, yes but not very much sustained steep; maybe some new snow will help my disposition; taking 13 days off was a huge mistake - I'm tired as hell, but maybe that's just the 17 NASTAR and 2 warm-up course runs talking.
