Best Powder Day EVAR!
Today was our first day on the slopes here in Steamboat, and today was also the best powder conditions I have ever experienced! (Velzy says, “me toooo!”)… We’re really enjoying the mountain. Gondolas rock! The people here have been really nice and it’s not too crowded right now at all. Most of the day was near whiteout conditions. At the end of the day, the storm started to break and the view was epic.
The best part of the day, hands down, was this “champagne powder” that people are always bragging about. The snow was so dry and fluffy that you couldn’t pack it into a snowball (lucky for Velzy). Falling down was like landing in pillows… most of the time. There were a few small patches of hard packed snow and ice - but they were few and far between. Simply wonderful.
