The weekend went well, with smaller-than-expected crowds at home and at the bottom of lifts. A perfect storm of colds and conflicts meant that Nick, Bonnie, and Ryan were the only folks able to make it out. We had a great time skiing Blue Mountain on Saturday and Camelback Elk Mountain Sunday. The weather was crisp but manageable and we got a little pow in between to make things a bit softer for tired legs. I was also trying out some new gear, which performed incredibly well. Being an early adopter of helmets was very safe, but man have things changed from boeri Myto circa 1997 to Giro Talon circa 2008. Back on Fresh Meadow we had food with beans, planned unintentionally but still quite good, and ice cream sundaes during 'Out Cold' to wrap up the weekend.
