Went to A-Basin. What an awesome day! Snow fell all day, lift lines under 5 minutes except for around 11 am. Only 1 run open but snow was very good.
Management is running the new HSQ slower to keep hoards of skiers off the run so we weren't fighting the masses. Bad news is the lift broke down for approximately 1/2 hour. We had just gotten on so by the time we made it to the top my feet were frozen. Ski patrol offered us free hot (cold) chocolate. Good news is the chair was shut down just long enough for me to warm up. By that time every had left the top and we had the run and a little fresh powder to ourselves. :D
Just annouced on NPR that El Nina means it's going to be a snowier winter for the northern and central mtns.
