Deer Valley w/Mom&Dad 3/12

Still catching up with some old posts -- almost done!

Conditions: powder
Gear: Rossignol Z9 skis

Despite the sub-optimal conditions, I met up with mom & dad at Deer Valley for a few runs on Monday. Since that snow at the beginning of the month, it's warmed up a bit and the snow is a bit spring-like. Still, it was nice to get out with the folks.

I was really surprised by how many people were on the hill. Maybe it was just poor timing, but there were people all over the place and no place to eat at Empire. It wasn't a holiday and it wasn't a powder day, but the crowds indicated otherwise. Maybe Utah's just been discovered. :(

I called it a day quite early. I'll let it go through a few more freeze/thaw cycles and really turn to corn before I head out again.

'til next time,
