Just got back from Lutsen. Good times as usual.
First trip to Lutsen in 4 years. No major changes that I saw. They've installed RFID gates at 3 of the 4 main lifts. That was my first time having to use those gates. Luckily they work fairly well.
The snow was textbook spring conditions. Rock hard in the morning, and then VERY quickly softening up. Everyone was on Moose in the rmoning, and then moved over to Eagle in the afternoon to chase the good snow. By 2:30 the hill was really chewed up and slushy and the skiing became almost dangerous. We saw many newer skiers and boarders take some heavy falls due to the conditions.
Stayed at Caribou Highlands and they upgraded us to a 3 bedroom townhome free of charge. Boy was that ever nice. I think we'll just book one of those next time. The space to let the family spread out was great.
