It was a beautiful morning. The wind had died down and the sun warmed the temps up into the low 20s. We are really starting to need a large snowstorm to help improve conditions. With the bright sun, the snow melts very quickly. Then in the evening and overnight, the snow hardens to a rock. Slick and icy conditions are also appearing on the ski trails.

We went to Keystone and we had the trails to ourselves. Over the weekend, they started to put up signs telling the skiers where the ski trails are less crowded. But during the week there is no need to follow those signs. After about 3 hours, we returned to the parking lot where we saw rivers of water flowing thru the ice and snow. In the evening, we went to Copper Mtn to see Moe Dixon at JJs and had a nice dinner.
