Really, Rain In December?

If you were feeling guilty for not skiing today, don’t.  Not only were Alta’s slopes crowded but they were also flat lit, socked in, and rainy. I thought maybe skiing in Rocky Point would yield some decent turns, but the snow ended up being a mix of mashed potatoes with some ice crust sprinkled in. Afterwards I tried my luck with the groomers but with the warm temps, misting rain, and ever present holiday crowd I decided to give up after two runs. Doing our snow dance and praying does not seem to be very effective this year. Maybe it’s time we start sacrificing goats or something.
