Snowy day at heavenly


So after a sunny day yesterday with temps in the 50s and bright blue skies under the sun, today was a very snowy day.  It was raining down at lake level, but up at 9000 feet it was mid winter: heavy snow and mist conditions.  

Very few people were on the mountain, so I could ski without worrying about people around me.  Yesterday was good day for riding the ski's edges, making big arcs down the mountain, and today was a day for making smaller turns and throwing up big rooster tails of fresh powder.


All of these pictures were late in the afternoon. However at the end of the day I was completely soaked, as the snow had stuck to me, and penetrated all my shells, whose GoreTex has long worn off.
