The fresh mash potatoes that fell today turned Alta’s slopes around tremendously.   Even though only 5″ fell it allowed Alta Ski Patrol to reopen the High T giving the hand-full of skiers up there some decent shreddin’ options.  The viz was low and there was definitely a hard chunder layer underneath but, the random face-shots that hit you every 5th turn made you feel momentarily blissful.  There weren’t really any areas that stood out today as every aspect quickly reminded you that opening it up was not an option.  Hopefully tomorrow with tonight’s predicted snowfall we’ll be doing less bracing for the next ice bump and more charging at the next pow pillow.
