February 27 - Afternoon update

I've just come in from skiing. Wow, what a wild day it is out there. I'm going to change my assessment of the ski conditions. They are Fair to Good. Although we have lots of beautiful, dry, powder snow, we also have very strong winds blowing that snow around and piling it up into big drifts. Much of the grooming I did this morning is unrecognizable. We have big drifts in all the usual places; but I'm also seeing big drifts in places where I've never seen them before. Until this wind stops blowing, I can't really make things any better.
