April 4th, 2 more inches of new snow in Vail
Sunday, April 4th, 2010Oh boy, it looks like April might be our best month for snow in the 2009-2010 ski season. Vail mountain reported another 2 inches of new snow at 6am. Light snow all morning so far and more on the way perhaps on Tuesday. Hope to get you pictures late this afternoon.
Afternoon update: it warmed up, so the snow at the bottom was turning to corn. Most of the powder in the Back Bowls turned to mashed potatoes. Bumps were soft. Below are some pictures mostly from the Front Side of Vail Mountain. Chris R.

April 1st Antlers Vail ski report, storm comes in
Thursday, April 1st, 2010Antlers Vail ski report April 1st. It started snowing around Noon on Thursday and it has been coming down pretty good all day. Went out for a last minute ski (at 2:30pm) and skied until closing at 4pm. Wow, it was good. Perhaps 5 inches so far. Feels like winter……… Vail Pass was closed most of the day (along with Blue Sky Basin and China Bowl). Should be a good day tomorrow. Chris R.

It was snowing so hard, we had to floss our teeth when we got home.
Vail snow report and Antlers at Vail ski conditions, March 29
Monday, March 29th, 2010Sunshine baby ! Wonderful snow and warm temps today. I only had an hour and a half for skiing so I stuck to the front side of Vail mountain. Groomers were great and the bumps on the top 1/2 of the mountain were still soft. I would assume that the Back Bowls were good after Noon with good corn skiing. Enjoy the pics…. Chris R.
