Beautiful Early Winter Day

I went out for a great ski this afternoon. It seems like the Arctic freeze is over. While skiing, the sun was out and it was a very pleasant 25 degrees. You know that great snow surface when the wind blows around an inch or two of new snow and it feels like you are sliding on velvet. Well, that was today. The locals have a name for those conditions, but I am not allowed to use it in my blog. It was awesome. I hope everyone gets a chance to enjoy a day like this at Arapahoe. The sky was a dark blue, the East Wall was rugged, and the snow was like butter. See you soon.
