Details:

Storming, fairly cold.	Foggy w/ generally poor vis.  Wind and skier packed
powder - the off piste was a bit heavy.  Still - new snow, and lots of it!
Couldn't ask for more.	Got sweet at the end of the day!  Never crowded, and
empty by day's end.
Finally got to ride with Darryl - but he strained his neck early in the day
and didn't ride.  Hit the backside (Lakeview), and all sorts of routes of
Summit chair.  Flew down D8 (despite vis), The Face, Face Cliffs, and
Waterfall (double black!). Free day
