Deer Valley 4/15, Closing Day

Weather: partly cloudy, low 60's
Conditions: spring!
Gear: Volkl 7 24 Pro skis

Sorry no pics -- Deer Valley banned cameras today. They didn't want anybody showing off how thin the snow was ... Just kidding! :) I just forgot my camera, but there was a lot of brown!

Still, it was fun to get out for closing day. Where they'd made snow, things were still pretty good for the most part. But off of that was some thing snow. Especially at the top of Empire! But it was worth it to get out to the chutes one last time this year.

Alta's open again next weekend and Snowbird will be open a few more weeks, but that's probably it for my season. 52 days, a personal record. And even thought it wasn't the best snow year, it was still a lot of fun.

Now to dust of the mtn. bike ...

'til next time,

Spring-skiing March

So, other than that storm at the beginning of the month, and a little snow the last week of the month, March was all about CORN. Spring-skiing at its finest. I can't count how many days I skied when the temps were in the 50s and 60s!

Maybe it's not the snow that Utah is known for, but when you've got lemons .... :)

Hopefully we'll get another storm before the resorts close for the season. If not, give me a good pair of shades and plenty of sunscreen and I'll go enjoy the corn.

'til next time,
