Angel Diva
The first official EpicSki Gathering day was Mon, March 25, 2013. Needless to say, the place was pretty empty. We got blue bird skis, but just a bit too warm by the afternoon with so much sun. The groomers were great in the morning. I gather the folks who skied the upper mountain bumps and trees had a good time. I spent most of the day off the Pierre lift working on stuff I learned from a 3-hour private lesson the day before. Plus helping a relatively new Diva gain confidence on blue runs. Had a ball!
As I understand it, my other housemates had a good time all over the place. I think the Diva count was at least seven, not counting my potential Diva friend who is the wife of a Bear. I skied with her and her husband at Targhee on the long green from the top a couple days ago.
I really enjoyed Bridger my first time last year. Enjoyed it just as much this time. It will be even better for intermediates and advanced skiers next season. The old Alpine double (s l o w, no safety bar, center pole) is going to be replaced with two triples. That will really open up the terrain on that side. One will be for only green/blue terrain, the other for blue/black. There are a lot of fun mellow trees over there.
Pierre lift, long, fast, and footrests, only blue and black
Mrs. jgiddyup liked the blues off Pierre, several wide blue choices after the short cat track at the top
View of rope tow from Bridger lift, base of Pierre just beyond the tow rope hut
Powder Park lift is long, not very fast, only way up from the base mid-week
Looking down at the base (two buildings), that's a skier in the middle
