With an unexpected 3″ overnight and a little bit of help from the winds, Alta’s hardpack conditions quickly turned around today. Nothing mind blowing but certain areas skied really soft and smooth, especially slopes in between West Rustler and Lone Pine. Thirds and the front side were also surprisingly good, supporting face-shotty snow. Baldy Shoulder looked great but was closed due to the winds. Late tonight forecasters are calling for another small system to move in and drop up to 5″ by tomorrow afternoon. I’ll take it!
