Well, I broke down.
Time to get a run up on the frontside of Vail mountain to kick my ski season off.
We chose to gingerly ski Avanti for the first run on Vail mountain for the year.
I’m pretty superstitious about early season turns.
I intend to never end up in that circumstance, so caution was the name of the game.
The steep pitch on Avanti was suprisingly nice reintroduction to powder turns and we had it all to ourselves.
If you head up, take care and be aware of the unseen hazards of early season conditions.
Water bars, stumps and of course , rocks can ruin your day.
Its a long season, ensure you stick around for all of it.
