The sluff piles were really tasty though.
A-Zs were scratchy underneath and reports from the S. Face were dust on crust. Still, tomorrow is forecast to be brilliantly sunny and cold with a gradual warming trend. Looks to be sunny through at least Sat.
Tomorrow is my Friday and I plan to hit some favs. like an A-Z on the way to a lap off the N. Summit before I have to slave away at the weekly staff meeting.
Make no mistake, the skiing will be good, but I think the less traveled and lower mountain N. facing terrain will be where the money is. Shady Chute, Peru/Bolivia, Lone Moose etc.
And of course the Headwaters.
FYI for all you Big Sky only ticket holders, we are taking a much harder line with people who ski the Headwaters beyond Cold Spring w/o a Moonlight pass. If we see you, expect to be escorted to the ticket office and you will buy a pass for the day.
The alternative is either losing your pass at the other resort or talking to the Sheriff.
We spend a lot of money on opening and maintaining that terrain and if you want to ski it, we are psyched.
But you gotta pay for the pleasure.:fm:
