Saturday
I was out from 11:00 to 1:00. A little chilly and windy to start, and I heard it was firm before I went out. Great spring skiing in the sun . My last run was down Beaver Trail, sunny and fun corn snow.

Gen 7 Fuel - Rebranding
The Petro Canada at the bottom of the hill has been rebranded, Gen 7 Fuel. Apparently the OIB Osoyoos PetroCan is also switching over.
The convenience store has been mostly gutted as part of the upgrades.
Day 57, in the Sunshine
I went out at 9:15 - 14 runs on the Lump. Firmer corduroy in the shade and gradually softening great turns everywhere else About the 9th or 10th run, there was a little bit of a grab on the path over toward Tennings etc, so we stayed on the skiers right after that.
Last run down was Beaver Trail - a slight grab going over, but made it across just fine as soon as I put my skis on edge.
Fine tuning on the new terrain features on FWP, for tomorrow's event.
I will wax tonight, and if the weather conditions are similar tomorrow, will go out at the same time. There is lots of good skiing out there, my knee told me it was time to call it a day.
