Saturday 4/15/17 report

Post by tyrolean_skier »

Sunny day for most of the day. Soft snow almost everywhere with some exceptions of iciness between moguls. So glad Bear Mountain was open so we could have fun on some additional terrain. OL had nice soft moguls so it was a repeat. Wildfire, Bear Claw and Skyburst were fun too. Heard the Stash was in good shape. At Needles, lower Vertigo inspired us to ski it more than once. Upper Old Needles was also very nice. The rest of the needles runs were OK. Only skied parts of Superstar on my way from Middle Ovation and Old superstar (very skimpy exit). I had no desire to ski Superstar top to bottom since soon enough that will be the only trail available to ski. I prefer to ski naturals that will soon disappear like Skyhawk, Old Bittersweet, North Star, Great Bear, etc. I hit the canyon late in the day so only skied East Fall and Downdraft.

Was a beauty there Friday. Nothing like bowl skiing in 50 degrees. ENJOY!

What a great last minute trip 3 days skiing Copper. Breck and Winter Park.

Amazing that Tricks, Whiteout and Captain Hafski were out there too!

Skied with Tricks the first two days, Great spring conditions for sure.

Stayed in Breck Thursday night and explored the town. Much like Aspen.

Have not been out to this part of CO. since the 80's. Much has changed.

Pic of Tricks at Breck. Peak 8 I think..
