Rose was an absolute blast today (Monday, 1/10). Everything is chalk. The groomers, the trees, the bumps. Even the wind scoured south edge off Washoe Zephyr. There are spots in the trees that are smoother than some of the groomers. I was anticipating bobsled tracks to my waist in the trees but, no, smooth in most areas with some bumps popping up here and there. I was on FX96s but anything narrower would have been fine.
@Stephen is in town and we skied with
@Pat AKA mustski and her husband Bob. I love showing people around the mountain but Stephen was here yesterday with
@Philpug,
@Tricia, and
@AKMINK and recommended the trees. I'm glad we did them. Slide Bowl is a hoot for carving in conditions like this and the big Kastles did just fine.
If you keep going to skiers right off Washoe Zephyr, this is your view of Washoe Lake with Carson City behind the hill on the right. The snow was, um, interesting in this area. The ski area boundary is just over by the taller trees.
