Vertical feet skied today. What a great day! It snowed all day yesterday so added about 6" new on top of the foot or so they got this week. It was clear in the morning which made for a nice 9am start! I discovered an advantage to always being a single in the lift line..you get to talk to a lot of people! I spoke with locals from Breck, locals from Denver and the surrounding areas, folks from California, Texas, Atlanta, and North Carolina, and various countries in Europe. One outcome of all that chatting is that I got some GREAT tips on where the best snow, best tree skiing, and shortest lift lines are. Perfect! So I spent a good part of my day on Peak 10, skiing some awesome double black runs, full of powder and trees. (trail map) Then made my way slowly back to Peak 9 to ski some double and single black chutes and trees, and finally, when my legs had nothing left to give (and they were closing the mountain), I skied off of Peak 8 back to my condo. What a day.
Word is another storm is coming through, so I might get stuck up here for another day or two...dang.

Sucks to be you, MF! I hope, for your sake, you get more powder tomorrow instead of airport down time.
