Old skis love these conditions, thin snow all over the north face yet too crazy for most. Heading up to Baldy and back this morning on about 2 or 3 inches packed converted warmed up and frozen again snow. Picture here last eve on the snow farm where we let wind and nature do her thing. Deer tracks welcomed, had some hunters stop and watch me and the dogs circle around the fields in disbelief. Don't shoot!

A fast moving snow squall and light flurries for days has opened skiing for staff, locals with rock skis, friends that sign 100 waivers, and just nutty people. 3"5" over terra firma. Drifting has been taken advantage of and we rolled most of the snowfarm. Still far from perfect and we still have the CLOSED sign at the corner. Cheers on an early start to winter. Timberline opens Wednesday as snowmaking temps are to be taken full advantage of.
