Skiing in April!

April is well under way and I am happy to report that when we left this afternoon it was still dumping up at Crystal!
The cold and hot temperatures and significant snow fall have had their impact on the mountain however..... check out these pictures we took at Bear Pits! it looks like a completely different run!
That whole hill side used to have trees scattered all over it
Now they are all piled up at the bottom
Pretty incredible what Mother Nature can do... thanks for the new ski run!
