Hope everyone had a good thanksgiving and got out on the slopes if you could
I went with one son for an AM session at Cataloochee-- empty with nice consistent coverage throughout the open runs. AND it was open to the 3/4 mark instead of 1/2 where it has been on a lot of my t-giving trips. Cat did a great job, very mellow vibe and a good way to get my legs under me. I'm usually bored at Cat, but we got pretty lost in the moment, it was a fine half day of short fast runs.
Sorry that I didn't make runs with DreamofPow, but it was good to see you again.
So some pictures: first as the lifts opened
Smooth coverage
the cornice
my son navigating the crowds
I just hit repeat for two hours on that drop, fun and fast and just trying to connect 3-6 fluid turns together, and I never got it right (man I'm right-handed) ,but it was awesome. It never feels certain on that first run that any of this will work, then it does and a new season is on

Good to see you DS, every time I was on the lift I saw you skiing down..... I would have taken pics but they would have looked exactly the same as yours. CAT gets props for great conditions and a well run mountain.
