Monday spring skiing in Mineral basin

Snowbird has gotten 12 feet of snow in the last 12 days.  The season total is up to 577" so it looks like they'll have enough to stay open through May, hopefully longer.

I went up Monday, all the powder had turned in to pretty crappy stiff/crusty cement, but in Mineral basin the south facing groomed runs was a really nice soft slush, perfect for my powder skis.  I didn't ski much because I was pretty drained from the meet, but it was awesome to be up in the mountains with all that snow, sunshine and warm temps.
