Well, Russ..... I think all things happen for a reason, so maybe this will bring you something good??? When does the season end up there? I've got 2 (maybe 3, if I count a planned ski day with my now 4 year old son!) more days on snow then I'm done. Not quite ready for spring yet, but spring is fast approaching and my horses are needing some attention from me!

We had some happy fun carves today in broken sun on variable firmness spring groomers with a handful of local hardbooters which made for a great start to the last week of lift served riding at Schweetzer allowing me to create one of the best run on sentences of the season;)

Overall the last week of lift served at Schwietzer has been a treat. Free refill freshies for a couple days, sunshine and hero carving for a couple days, and yesterday I made the best railroad track trenches of my life in spring chop on 186 atomics:biggthump

And now we're closed with 15ft of snow on top and what looks like a powder fest for the rest of the week:smashfrea
