Skied Mt. Bachelor for the first time ever today. Pure spring skiing where finding the softened, but not too soft, snow was the name of the game. Bottom line is that Bachelor is a HUGE mountain. It's not a just matter of total acreage but the fact that it's one mountain that's skiable 360 degrees when it's all open. Half the terrain is above treeline. With only high speed lifts open, we got in a lot of skiing from 9:00-1:15. Lifts are open 8:30-1:30 this week.
My ski buddy, Bill, and I will ski Bachelor a couple more days this weekend with friends who live in southern Oregon. Hopefully conditions will be as good.
Not many cars in the parking lot at 9am. Most locals with kids parked near the base of the Skyliner Express.
View from near the top of Pine Marten Express, which starts at Village West base. Could see Summit Express in the distance although it's hard to spot in the picture.
Looking down at the West Village lodge from The Cirque, about 1500 ft higher
