So much for tradition.
No cinco de mayo at Alpy.
No excuse as far as I'm concerned.
Complete and total bullshit.
Fuck Boyne.

I would assume that you've been to previous cinco de mayo celebrations there, and if so then you know damn well that it's not a losing day financially. Fact is that they are hoping to push Alpentalics to Crustal for the just announced Cinco de Mayo festivities there. Regardless, this shouldn't be a business decision, it should be a celebration for those of us that have supported the mountain for many years. Over 2 decades for me. Passholders should be respected a little bit more, for we are the ones that keep the mountain alive.

Two or three years ago Cinco de Mayo was a fundraiser for Outdoors for All with the $5 tickets going to them. (Not sure if this was a onetime thing.)

There's no shortage of people visiting Alpental. Last Saturday filled all the lots (even the seldom used lower lot) and had people parking along the road. If the current forecast for weekend sun holds up, I can't imagine this weekend will be any different.

Did a couple laps today at Baker, unfortunately it was a little hairy so we couldn't step up to anything to big. But still got some amazing mellow pow turns.

Anyone know what the conditions at Crystal (mostly inbounds) will be like tomorrow? Did it stay cold and will there be freshies leftover or did it all get chewed up today? Live in Spokane and considering heading that way tonight.

Baker was quite awesome today. We drove up expecting a few new inches, but found quite a few more than that.

There will be no freshies. It did warm up a decent amount.
Does anyone really think that untracked snow in a ski resort can last a whole day unskied? Lift closures aside. This is 2011 in the land of fat, rockered powder skis.
Anyhow it could still be pretty good on the north faces.

It truly was amazing until the sun came out and baked everything. Lapped firs early on in the morning which was absolutely insane, then did a couple skin laps up to the top of pan area. Did a couple runs with tom and some other friends, epic April 28th to say the least.
