I thought the shop had done a good job waxing my skis, but I guess the pollen is winning the battle.  I almost think I could ski Blueberry Chutes faster with my skins on!  Opting out of doing Herman due to the fact I did not feel like expending effort to ski down slopes that would mimic uphill speeds, I opted to ski one of the steeper lines near Table Mountain.  Anywhere that is steep on this side of the mountain is probably your best bet for good turns.
