16 Nov 2010 - Snow & Wind Storm


This morning Helen and I went skiing at Copper. They reported 8" of new powder and 14" in the past 48 hours. This was Helen's first day and my 2nd. We took the American Eagle lift up and then the E-lift to the top. Very windy at the top. We first skied CDL 20 which had lots of powder. Then we moved to Mine Dump. More powder and less people. Helen's first runs were powder and bumps. Only groomer was Main Vain on our way back down.

Around 4PM today, we had a major wind and snow storm blowing through from the north. This photo was shot through our downstairs window. You can barely make out the willows which are only about 25' from the house.

We are in for the night.
