Details:

7 inches fell on Friday, got to it Saturday.  And the Silverado chair opened
for the season the day earlier.  OH YEAH BABY!! Though it was already all
tracked out by the time I got there, it didn't matter, the area back there is
sweet.	Please don't hit it if you're not up to double black, you got plenty
of mt elsewhere to hit, plus you'll get glared out back there as you fall, as
you should.
  The only draw back of silverado is the slow ass chair.  I think it takes 15
minutes.
But regardless, I am so thankful for Squaw. The powder was dry enough for an
amazing day.
Other fantastic runs--	The Funnel off of Emigrant & Headwall's north bowl.
