Sierra Cement?

Fortunately, I had to work today.  So we got up early, and hit the KT line just before opening to get a few morning runs in.  We lined up inside the KT gate, and managed about 12th chair.  I love weekday KT lines.  Everyone's equally pushy, leading to a line which works pretty well, as opposed to the unfortunate combination of clueless and jerk which often appears on the weekends.

Where we hung out on the lift for a while waiting for the lift to start again.  We lapped a line-less KT for a while, waiting for Headwall to open up so we could escape to higher elevations.  Avy debris was everywhere, but we did manage a nice lap in the first alternate.

Once Headwall opened we headed there.  Ran into a nice guy we rode one lap of KT with on Headwall too.  How do you turn cool people you meet on lifts into actual ski buddies?  Inquiring minds want to know... I like my ski buddies lots, but suspect we'd all do well with a little more variety.

Anyhow, North Bowl was the run of the day.  Kept blowing in fresh for great turns, at both higher and lower entrances.

And we had it pretty much all to ourselves, so were unwilling to give it up for a few runs.

Under the lift on Siberia was nice for a run or two, but then it started to get pretty heavy, so we headed back for work.  Nice timing, because fortunately I had to work.
