FIVE Feet in Five Days!!!!!

Best Christmas Present of 2008!

Christmas was good this year!  When I opened my eyes and dialed the snow phone all I heard was 20 inches of new snow and still snowing hard.  I jumped out of bed and into my gear and headed for the mountain.  Due to the sketchy snow pack and the massive amounts of it, Jackson Hole Mountain Resort had their hands full.  I couldn’t wait for the mountain to open.  The mountain was delayed opening and I headed for Snow King.  My second Christmas present was opened at 11:30.  I skied first tracks down Elk at Snow King Resort (the local town hill where I grew up skiing).  The snow was so deep that I could barely breath as a straight-lined down the 40 degree slope.

 Merry Christmas to all.  I hope your Christmas was as deep and soft as mine.
