Not the best day in the world to end a season.
It was misty, and tho the temps were in the 50s, after yesterday, it felt cold.
Still, for those that ventured out, it was a pretty good day.
The problem was yesterday.
Yesterday, I awoke to rain. :shock: That was followed by really high winds. :shock: I refreshed the interactive map 3 times before heading out. No... didn't seem to be a wind hold day... I ventured out.
It wasn't a good day. It was a fantastic day! :D
It was 80°. Spring Fling and Downspout were not really soft, presumably due to the grooming before the rain, but they skied really well. As for Ripcord, Organgrinder, Stein's quickly were soft and slow. tho not sticky, in the least. Non-groomed cruisers were hard, but gave easily, leading to a soft, sweet carveable but fast snow.
Everyone was saying it had to be one of the all time best spring skiing days! 8)
Hope many of you got out there to see it, because . . . I did! :wink:
And now... Will there be a post season playoff? :wink:
