Happy New Year!


Pretty windy in the early evening last night, but it tapered off later. I’m surprised that many of the areas are not reporting any new snow, because it came down pretty good after a rainy start to the day. Not a ton of snow, but some extra for the snowpack.


The snow is still falling, just some pretty flakes floating down as the sun tries to come out to make them sparkle.


The wind has come up a bit in the last few minutes, though. Not anything that would affect lift operations, but always keep an eye on that if it gets blustery.
