    5-5-07 Alta Lenas:Part Two

    A couple years ago, we had a little global warming spell, similar to today, and experienced Alta Lenas two years ago..

    Well, it appears the global warming has returned to Alta Lenas, leaving us with well over a foot of new snow on May 5th. It was 85 degrees in SLC just a few days ago.

    Shitty pics, as I was up there alone. But hopefully more will arrive later from the countless other folks up there today as I was leaving. Should be good tomorrow too, and maybe even monday.

    Early bird gets the worm.


    Spun some laps in Ballroom, then bailed, off to work.

    formerly an ambassador for a few others, but the ski industry is... interesting.

    Thumbs up

    Ahh, that was sick. Took a few laps, last one down to the alta/snowbird connector road from the top of wildcat was the best. I swear 2 and a half feet of light snow was in there. Eagles nest wasn't bad either. West rus was pretty damn fun too. Shit, I think I should've stayed until dark.

    Thanks to Dantheman and powho for the tour guiding and thanks to Trackhead for the lower mountain beta.
