Great Spring Morning

Lex and Rick Jones

We picked our runs by sun angle and had some great runs on the Lump, and a ski in off the Eagle. On our last couple of runs, their skis grabbed a couple of times.

My spring snow routine?

I clean the bases nightly, and iron on canning paraffin. I do not scraped it, and leave rough. I did not stick at all, and after 7000ft vertical, all the excess wax has worn off the skis. The other tip is to keep your skis a little on edge  on the flats.

The weird white face covering? It is sunscreen fabric, feels cool underneath, and I don't have to slime my face.

A few cars in the overflow.

Today is forecast to be the warmest day, and a cooling trend to start overnight. It feels hot in the sun, bur my cabin deck sensor in the shade says plus6C at 1:25pm.
