Wanted to drop the rope at Widowmaker this morning since it snowed several inches overnight but there was a delayed opening. Ended up at G.Dancer for first tracks since there were early ups in the village .Then found my way back and waited out the rope drop at the south mountain . 3 or 4 inches of low density powder had coated the groomer nicely overnight and made for some great turns.
Edited and new video added.
South Mountain at SS 3/05/12 from Cbrook on Vimeo.
It snowed pretty much all day at times dumping hard and the spots that refill did. There were some deep turns to be had if you knew where to look by the afternoon .Here's an unofficial measurement of the 24 hours snowfall out back of my friends condo by the end of the day

Seasons almost over .Played hookie today to ride for a few hours this morning.
I think it was a good choice
Groomhead heaven..
Right under the lift was really fun.The groomer too.
No overnight grooming on Choker + some midwinter snow + a few pockets of powder
This go pro camera pic is awful but conditions on Cupp weren't.
It started warming up around noon . Called it a day . I hope that wasn't the last day of the season for me but if it was ..I'm OK with it.The first few hours were about as good as its been all season.

I was upset at my self when I left my regular camera at home on accident this trip. All these are GP pics and seem to have a weird fish eye look .
Reworked a few of the video clips from Monday and added a little audio.
