Day 20

Conditions: Hard

Location: Snowbird, UT

Our last day riding for a while was upon us as we headed to Snowbird this morning. In a cruel twist of fate, Snowbird opened the canyon road for the first time in days yesterday – the very day we scheduled both Direct TV and a washer/dryer to be delivered. We did have two great powder days at Snowbasin, so we weren’t too bummed about missing out on the Canyon crawl.

Things had a changed a bit today. Everything was skied out from the mob that showed up yesterday. Also, the temperatures had really dropped overnight. All that was left was an icy, hard-pack, even on the groomers. We rode as long as we could, but it only added up to a few hours.

With no signs of softening, we decided to call it and head back to the house to get some errands done. I guess that’s the beauty of living here: if it’s a bad day, you just go home, crack a beer and do some errands.  I can handle that.

Days to go: 30 (Yes, I know we’re not going to make 50…)
