Day 38: 4/7/08

Day 38

Conditions: Hard pack in the morning; mashed potato snow in the afternoon
Location: Heavenly, NV/CA

Highlights:

- We were surprised to find soft snow on the Nevada side in the morning. Although there were hard spots, the conditions were good all day
- We had one of the best lunches of the season: good food, no crowds, and no kids. Plus, it was warm enough to eat outside.
- We got some good spring-skiing footage in the morning

Lowlights:

- Tahoe has not had good snow since their epic storm in January. Much of the terrain we like to ski (trees, glades, bumps, etc.) was either closed or rock hard with pavement-style snow.
- Dirk was tired and sore by 2:30, so we quit early.
- The baby park was closed…and we do not have the skills to go in the medium or large parks.

Après Ski:

Dirk bought a new snowboard and got his laces fixed. We shopped more at Heavenly and ate out before heading back to the condo.

Days to go: 12
