Still plenty of snow. The warmer days and cooler nights are causing the base to crust up a bit … so the downhills are bit scary. Steve, Dan, Bianca and I did a loop to the radio tower last night. There was still enough powder stuff on the frozen base for a nice glide on the flats.

Having a whole day to ski I decided to venture off my usual routine and drove to Bear Swamp. I saw only two other skiiers, there was a ton of snow, it was cold and crisp but not crusty..so much fun to see some different trails. I parked at the Iowa Road spot and it was an about an hour drive from downtown Ithaca. The trails were all well marked and lots of nice loop options! Back to the kitchen!
