Saturday

 

Time for a couple quick ski posts from the weekend.  Last night we got another dump of snow on Pyramid and it even snowed a couple inches on the lawn at my house.  It is hard to believe that a week ago we had absolutely no snow anywhere.  Now on the mountain it is already mid season snow conditions.  On the mountain it is more like late February than early December.

Anyway on Saturday I had very high hopes for a powder day.  Friday evening it was so deep that my dogs could not move, and I was pulling people out of the ditch with my jeep.  But it was not to be.  I went up Saturday morning with Ryan and found that there had been a temperature inversion and that all the powder had turned to slush.  Oh well.  It was still pretty good skiing.

And getting the base wet is good because then it does not blow away.  All the snow we now have on high is not going anywhere.
