Day 10 ... Double digits!!!
Ho hum ... yet another day of hero groomers - perfect for carve 360s and revert carves.
Cypress 25/ 26
Day 11 - Bluebird day ... but crappy hard bumpy lumpy groomers after a rainy weekend.
Revert carves and carve 360s with a lot of caution.
Fingers crossed for a pow day tomorrow (Tuesday)

Day 13 - Hero groomer day. Cranking turns with LeopardSkin down Humpty Dumpty, Cat Track, Jasey Jay, Lower Fork, Panaroma and WindJammer.
Finished with Olympic ... surprisingly still lots of fresh patches.

Day 14 - Late start ... 11am - 3pm. Did the walking tour from Lot 3A then Eagle Chair down Olympic (4x).
Many thanks to Jens for directing me to his "Super Secret" run. Hit it another 4 times as part of my walking tour.
Guess which run ... starts with "Crazy" and ends with "Raven"
Also, nice to bump into Igor today.

OSR. Heavy fog. Dusting of 5 to 10 cm wet freshies which are now hard and compacted. Can't see. Is there any sun? Perhaps elsewhere in the world. Certainly not at Cypress.
Come on up!

I was set to go for day #2 ski but saw the heavy fog on the webcams. Then I saw an unexpected wind opportunity. 11M then 9M kite and SB at 3rd Ave. Solo session until one other arrived towards the end of my session. 8 deg Cel on arrival with a very pleasant mix of sun and cloud. No fog.

My "Come on up!" with an exclamation mark wasn't enough to entice you?
Raven Chair opens tomorrow
