It was a beautiful morning and, although I usually don’t head up to Bridger Bowl on the weekends, I thought I’d give it a shot this morning. Fortunately, I am an early riser by nature so I zipped up there early and was able to park close. (I really don’t like having to schlep my skis and walk in ski boots any great distance!). I got all geared up and was in the lift line when they started loading. I was probably in the first 20 people to head up the mountain. I was concerned about the snow (or lack thereof!) but it really wasn’t too bad. There were a few icy spots on some of the runs and you definitely had to keep your eye open for the occasional soil poking through the snow but overall, it was not bad. It really didn’t get that crowded either. I rarely had to wait more than a minute in any lift line I got in. I got in a dozen nice runs this morning and all limbs (and joints, real and artificial) are intact! The snow started to get a bit soft and heavy around noon so I decided to call it a day. I heard that there’s a big foot ball game today so I thought I’d go home and get ready for that.
We definitely need more snow. I think it’s supposed to snow Tuesday and Wednesday – it figures. Tuesday I’m driving down to West Yellowstone and on Wednesday I will be spending the better part of the day on a snowmobile in Yellowstone Park!
Enjoy the pics of Bridger Bowl. The weather was spectacular! Go Rams!
