Snowing pretty hard, warmer than yesterday, but still cool enough for good snow. Lotsa folks enjoying lift served skiing. Thunderbird was not open so I skied up it, across to Central, and down Parachute. Nice knee deep fluff, brief chat with Proski Seattle and North Bend staff, then back up and over. The run down tbird was equally fine. Tomorrow should be great!
great morning to get out before the big dinner.
did a lap on Hyak then went over and checked out Central, Alpine Face.
coverage is still low, 2-3 feet, some melt water low spots. have a few new scratches on my bases. nothing major. the powder has consolidated a lot.
saw arcticcat2 going up Hyak with his daugher. fun ride for her down.

Did another day at Central today (11/26). masses of people farming triple 60 and parachute. Consolidated powder with about 4-6 inches new from last night on top.
I skied Central for the first time today, while on a boot-try-on expedition. Nice skin track up Triple 60, and good cut-up heavy pow there and on Parachute. Snoqualmie sure is nice when it's cold.
The WSDOT report early this AM said something about freezing rain at Snoqualmie -- sounds like that didn't actually happen ?
