I just got back from the NASTAR Nationals in Snowmass and figured my season was over. There was enough snow at Okemo to get in one more day.

Skied that trail Fri, Sun, and today. A lot was lost with those 80 deg temps. Even between Fri and Sunday. Today was very foggy, rainy and cool. The ice is coming through. And rocks. But it’s still skiable.

Probably not if you're 76 though ..... one little snicker doodle and you've got powder for bones.
I mean, I push it as hard as I can at 72 but once there's pigment coming through the remaining turns number in less than 5.
