Conditions

Another perfect spring skiing day. If anything, the temperature was a little warmer than the previous day, meaning that the snow softened up a little earlier.

Overall

Another very good morning skiing. Spoiled a little by a crash on Sierra Grande that left me with sore ribs and a trip to casualty later in the day for an X-ray. Again there were virtually no lift queues, so even stopping before 1pm, I got in an enormous number of runs. Skiied mostly off the Backside Express lift.
