I skied with Denis today at Kirkwood.  It was a beautiful day and the snow finally softened a bit.  We've had mid-Atlantic style frozen granular out here for a few days.

Here are some pics:

Denis skiing near Solitude chair with his AT set-up.

Near chair 3, Iron Horse access to backside

View of the Cirque on a pretty day, but enough pretty days, they need snow!

Thimble Peak and The Wall (very firm these days)

Dropping in.

Better skiing was a few hundred yards over.  This is Wagon Wheel bowl below the Wall.

Can't post pictures of Denis without showing him on his telemark gear, this from a couple days ago.

"... An important thing I'm finding about my trip:  it's not all about the snow, it's about the people too.  Had a wonderful home cooked meal after skiing with friends in UT and doing a lot of reminiscing skiing here at Kirkwood with an old friend from VA ..."

We so appreciate you spending time with us - and by the way that  Ullr bottle looks hardly touched after you left us :

Come snow! Come snow! Fall fast, fall slow Be it powder or crud, let the inches be shown Come snow! Come snow! Blessed Ullr bestow Make white our peaks; Make full our bowls Come snow! Come snow! From here to fro Let Ullr be praised! Let his gifts be shown.
