Today's Deep Thoughts:
10:30 update: Sunny skies, top to bottom make for great skiing! The groomers are fast and smooth, highly enjoyable. Off-groom conditions remain variable. There is a strong breeze blowing at you on chair 1, so dress warm. This afternoon should prove to be grogeous all the way around, it seems the wind is slowly calming.

Clear skies and great views are greeting you here today! There are a few lingering clouds floating about, however, they should give way to predominantly sunny skies, and pleasant skiing.

The Skiing has been fast and smooth, with corduroy that makes Mr. Levi jealous! Great grooming all over the mountain, and today Gelande and Powder Trap are groomed as well. I would suggest some sunscreen too. It is clear now, excellent visibility, however I do expect some clouds to roll in for a while, and then become predominantly sunny again as the ski day progresses. The wind is blowing fairly healthily at the summit currently, so be sure to wear your toque!

Football season is now over, thank goodness, now we can get back to the important things in life, like skiing! Lots of great runs to explore, lots of great food to eat, and after all of that, an apres' ski beer, perhaps at the new Base lodge Bar, or maybe the infamous Bierstube!

I keep on looking at the sun shinning above the valley inversions the last couple of days, and wonder why you would not want to be here, basking in the glory of vitamin D, having fun in the sun?!

And so it begins, another day in paradise!

Ski you soon! Erick

Your Responsibility Code

Skiing can be enjoyed in many ways. At ski areas you may see people using alpine, snowboard, telemark, cross country and other specialized ski equipment, such as that used by disabled or other skiers. Regardless of how you decide to enjoy the slopes, always show courtesy to others and be aware that there are elements of risk in skiing that common sense and personal awareness can help reduce. Observe the code listed below and share with other skiers the responsibility for a great skiing experience.
  • Always stay in control, and be able to stop or avoid other people or objects.
  • People ahead of you have the right of way. It is your responsibility to avoid them.
  • You must not stop where you obstruct a trail, or are not visible from above.
  • Whenever starting downhill or merging into a trail, look uphill and yield to others.
  • Always use devices to help prevent runaway equipment.
  • Observe all posted signs and warnings. Keep off closed trails and out of closed areas.
  • Prior to using any lift, you must have the knowledge and ability to load, ride and unload safely.

KNOW THE CODE. IT'S YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.

This is a partial list. Be safety conscious.
