I've made it a tradition for the last day of work before Christmas to hand out Christmas bonuses and then announce, "Have a great holiday, I'm going skiing!" I got to the bypass about 9:30 and there were still plenty of spots. I geared up and walked onto a half full tram. On the way up the tram op mentioned the Road to Provo had opened yesterday and hadn't been skied much. That was all I needed to hear and I made my way out the cat track. My first lap I sidestepped out the Knucklehead until I reached an open field. The snow was a bit wind effected but still skied very well, you just had to be patient and not force turns. The second lap I went all the way out past the corner, the snow was a bit more sheltered out there and skied more powder like.
I did some tram laps on the Peruvian side and called it a day. Tomorrow and Sunday look to be stellar, we've got quite a shot of snow on the way. The winds built during the day today in front of the incoming storm.
A small bit of this...
...led to this.
