The House of Michaels

Had a mellow day at Alpine Meadows.  Brian & Sarah did some ski training in the morning so I was riding by myself.  Did a lot of fun stuff in ‘Chute that Seldom Slides’ and found the best snow on ‘Expert’s Shortcut’.  The top of the mountain was shrouded in clouds all day so none of the hikes were open.  We had slight flurries all day which kept the crowds down.
Met a nice skier Eric on the ride up Summit chair and then again at Scott chair.  We ended up doing several laps on Scott chair together.  I showed him the trees on skier-left of ‘Chute that Seldom Slides’ which he liked very much.

Had another great powder day today at Alpine Meadows with Brian & Sarah.  Basically a repeat of yesterday.  🙂  Time to drive home and sit in traffic; what fun….  But that’s the price you pay for a pow-pow weekend

I had a great day at Alpine Meadows today skiing with Brian, Sarah and Adam.  Adam and Brian had their cameras so we got some good shots.  It was a serious powder day (it dropped about 6 feet during the course of the week leading up to the weeked).
Brian posted a trip report here with some of the photos.  Here are two good ones of me coming down ‘Lower 40 Face’:

With Brian, Sarah, & the girls.  I must be able to make up for the horrid drive up last night.

I’ll be heading up tonight to Tahoe for the weekend.  We’ll be at Alpine Meadows for anyone who wants to meet up.
