What a day at Alpental! Fresh tracks on every run I took! Surprisingly light fluffy pow up top. 7" new over a nice thick layer of prior dumpage. Temps seemed to fluctuate a bit throughout the day, which was evident at the base which was mashed taters, but so what. All upper mountain was excellent. Snowed constantly all day up until about 4:30 when I left with 3" on the car. Definately a day to remember. BM
