Days One and Two this weekend for 2012. I was even in the area just after new year's, but didn't think taking a day off of work was worth the tradeoff of manmade snow and ice.
We skied only a few hours today and yesterday, and it turns out that 63 days of skiing last year continue to pay dividends after a long break. The ice bumps were relatively friendly, and new snow is starting to make things look a little more like winter. Gold Coast was open, and there were some fun floaty turns to make if you looked a little bit. I'll be happy to make it off of the low-angle terrain as soon as possible, though.
Reminder to self, again: EHPs are much more suitable for ice than full rocker Kikus. Winter, I'm looking for an excuse to round out my quiver with a real set of powder skis, so help me help the economy, please.
Working a bit over the weekend means I'm planning to get a few runs in before work tomorrow. Hopefully tonight's storm will be kind.
2011/2012 season so far: 2 days, a paltry 13,153' of downhill so far.
