Bad weather and Bro testing.
Saturday we rock up at da Hood for some ski testing....fresh snow fills the parking lot and cloud fills the air....No %$6$^%$^&% skiing , no vis so no lifts, heading home heavy of heart we turn into Hood Medows and by chance see something almost falling out of the sky!!!!

You're at Timberline right? Were you able to ski all the way to the lodge? Was the Palmer chair even open?
