Mark and Trish drove up from O.C. for a couple days of skiing, their first turns of the year. They were going to come up before the holidays, but the conditions were still too marginal at that point.

The snow is staying very good, since we haven’t had a warm day in two weeks. There’s very few ice patches, none on the upper runs.

Nancy insisted that we ski some bumps off of Lookout.

Mark was stoked to finally get some turns in. Here he is on Sierra Grande.

Trish couldn’t believe that, as cold as it was today, this was the warmest it has been in awhile.
