OK.. I know... Cataloochee again. I had a blast last Sunday the 10th. Bumps were forming on Upper Omigosh. A few slick spots but real skiable... One bump did get the best of me.. and it's on here.
Next week... I plan on posting some video from Lake Tahoe... can't wait!

That was a pretty good recovery. Your shadow makes it look like you were in the air sideways.

A lot of us wish our skills were that good in the bumps.

The last couple of years, they have been leaving at least one side of Upper Omigosh ungroomed.

Yep .like was said... they haven't groomed the top a lot. I kinda like it.. Keeps it fresh with new bumps and rollers. The bumps have been typically on one side or the other. It was on the right this week. I am going for a quick fix tomorrow and will report the conditions tomorrow. Should be good. They blew last night and I expect them to blow tonight..fingers crossed. They have promised to blow only during non skiing hours this weekend. YES... and looks like maybe a little natural on Friday night... natural is good..aumented is fine too.
I hope they augment tonight. Peace!
