Two weeks ago, I was on the beach in Hawaii for our sales meetings. Yesterday, deep in winter’s snowpack. If last year’s La Nina season is any indication, there will be much to be thankful for again this year. With a couple big storms in the last two weeks, the season is off to a great start in the Cascades. Freezing levels are up today, but yesterday brought over a foot of new snow and blue skies. While many people went out to shop there way through Black Friday, I met a few friends at Crystal Mountain for what we termed White Friday.
Rainier poking out through intermittent clouds over the White River valley from the top of Crystal Mountain. What a phenomenal start to the season. It’s pretty rare to start the season off with faceshots, but there were a couple off High Campbell, and hitting a late day Northway opening held even more good turns. There were a few rocks to be found here and there, but overall, the snowpack is solid, especially for November. Can’t wait to get back out there again!
Hooray!
