Snow immersion is a real threat, even on easy terrain. So ski carefully on deep powder days, but also watch the people around you.
This was on a slope I ski all the time. It's a blue, but on a section that would be green if it were isolated.

Looks like the only western Washington ski area operating today is #CrystalMountain, who aren't running shuttles and only sold 400 parking spots. So if you're there, congrats, you lucky person!
A few places hope to open tomorrow and my area thinks Monday or Tuesday.

A slightly damp white woman in a wet jacket holds skis in front of a ski area
Hit Hyak today. Got a little wet but the snow wasn't as hard as expected (good job, groomers!) and the lack of crowds was fantastic. I'm hoping we get JUST enough Friday traffic for The Summit to keep us open Fridays next season. :)

Sasquatch covered in snow beside a ski slope
Had a lot of fun on my first visit to Mission Ridge. Conditions were great and the views were amazing after the fog dispersed. Also, I spotted Sasquatch! He looked cold.

A white woman on skis touches the wing of a WWII bomber
On Oct 2, 1944, a B-24 Liberator on a training flight crashed into a ridge outside Wenatchee, WA. Now the wing of that craft sits at Mission Ridge, where skiers and snowboarders make a point of touching it. Here's me doing that yesterday.

I spent over an hour clearing my driveway of snow this morning, but last night's dump was a little too late for the Summit ski area to open this weekend. We're good to go Tuesday, though! (Passholders only. General Public on Wednesday.)

The Washington ski season will officially begin when Baker opens THIS THURSDAY! Huzzah!
While my area isn't ready to spin the lifts yet, that's quickly approaching. We're expecting a lot of snow this week and I shouldn't have to see grass near my house until spring.
