Early Starts & Softness 04Feb18-06Feb18

I was fortunate to ski with Daryle again before the SuperBowl. Good quick outing on some new snow afforded by an early start... especially traversing out North Bowl glades pretty far past the gate. Always good to go with DD. No pics that day. I "worked" on Monday while first the wind ripped and then it snowed 8" during the day; I shoveled the deck. Then... it snowed another 8" overnight! Woohoo - finally a storm overachieving from forecast. That 2nd deck pic is a reload. I hit Keystone for some nice soft runs today - much of the prior days snow had been skied except in some secret spots and today's snow was unexpectedly heavy (making me breathe hard and incur fire thighs). Still, welcomed day of double digits where I could bring out the boats - Liberty Genomes, 145mm at the waist, fattest ever produced - always good lift comments. Hopefully even a video but the size restriction, Nest upload bandwidth and Blogger parsing restrictions make the process slow.
