Well we were up Renshaw today. Pretty good. 8" in the parking lot, 18+" up top. Was pretty overcast and in the trees if you stepped off the sled it was up to my hips, and I have long legs! Lots of fresh places to play. Never made it to the back side, just played in the trees east of the cabin. All the snow was dumped yesterday, and maybe 30 guys up today. Still the odd surprising stump or rock, but another foot or 2 and they'll be pretty well covered. Supposed to be sunny tomorrow, not sure where we're headed.

Rode renshaw yesterday higher open areas are fairly windblown, pretty good snow in the trees still lots of stucks to be had there, rode belle today definitely less fresh than renshaw but not a cloud in the sky definitely worth the trip.

We were at Lucille today. Not a soul but us. Had the whole mountain to ourselves! We put down almost all the tracks. Very few from the day before. Snow was not as good as Renshaw. But still some good stuff in the trees and if you looked a little. Not a cloud to be seen. What a great day. And the trails were in excellent condition.

On a side note, if anyone remembers to, maybe bring some scribblers or notebooks to the cabins. I would have if I had known.

This might be a dumb question, but I've only seen the cabins from the out side!

What are the scribblers and notebooks for?
