Today was the first time in a month and a half the local mountains have had a bit of snow. Truth be told, it wasn't much. The warm-up run, "The cut" wasn't very good. Lots of dirt patches and not a thick base. We ventured to the peak of the mountain, and it had a good base. It was much better than the bottom, but you can certainly tell El-Nino is playing havoc on winter this year. Too bad we have the Olympics. The above photo is the Cat that is uplifted to the mountain and then helps to pack in the snow and spread it around. Very cool and big machine. More amazing is the fact that they can gondola it up the mountain.
