- It snowed heavily until just after 8 this morning. That made for over a foot from the storm. The skiing everywhere was awesome. The Spine was effortless. Pure beauty. You could not find a ripple or a bump on Slalom Slope. I found a real treat skiing Janitors Only. Very steep and deep.At 8 AM I slipped out intending to ski two quick runs. I had a little trouble heading back inside. About 11 AM, when I got tired and hungry, I finally grabbed a seat, a latte and some antipasta at Il Rifugio. Delicious. It was a very nice way to spend the morning.
- 5 more inches today. That makes 11 inches for the storm. It is still snowing right now. There is good snow snow forecast for tonight and tomorrow. The skiing Friday was outstanding and just keeps getting better.

- For those who like skiing powder, we are in a very good cycle. This morning we reported 6 inches of new snow. Additional snowfall is expected this evening and there is actually snow in the forecast each day until Tuesday. Overall, our coverage is very good and, prior to this storm, the wind had filled in many troughs between moguls making a flat, buffed surface. Today's snow on top of that planar surface is delivering ideal conditions...................with more snow coming.
- When our youngest son was three, he spent the winter learning to ski. He began with lessons (as we believe everyone should!), but after taking lessons, he announced that he wanted to ski with his father and (mostly) his father alone. That winter my husband never left the bunny slope. He still believes it was […]

- Beaver Bowl is really buffed, especially the east side. I had a beautiful cruise down there leading to one of our new decks. There were no moguls. It was flat and sweet with a beautifully carve-able surface. Below the deck there are some great rolls leading into tree skiing and ultimately out to Lower Davis. Nothing, but pure, playful fun. Fantastic skiing.
- By MacKennea Broyles When the time finally came for my third ski lesson at Loveland, I had conflicting feelings. After my previous lesson, my instructor suggested I skip “novice” and move to intermediate. As excited as I was to move on to skiing more difficult runs, I knew the more difficult runs were going to […]

- We are having this kind of day (see picture below). The Face, The Spine and Slalom Slope are about as buffed as they get. The north half of Slalom was absolutely perfect. I couldn't wipe the smile from my face after skiing it.
- We had another fun Beacon Bowl. As advertised, there were competitions and dog clinics and vendors and auctions and all kinds of fun. Tony C auctioned off an old Pallavicini sign. All proceeds went to the Avalanche Center.
- Sunday was dry, mostly sunny, and comfortable with high temperatures in the 20s. Monday Snow Now on Monday morning, a cold front is approaching and snow showers are starting for the western...
