Day 37 - take in the views

For some reason it was very. busy on the mountains today.  At 9am, the lineup for the Village gondola was down to Showcase.  Strange.  There was only 2cm of snow overnight.  The alpine hasn't opened in a few days but temps got really warm, it rained, and then temps got really cold.  The snow up there isn't particularly great.  I was told it was quite icy.

At midstation, it was perfect.  Temps cold but not too cold.  Warm if you were moving around.  The sun was shining.  Fresh snow on the mountains.  The snow conditions were soft packed, so perfect for learning on.  I grabbed a group of four girls from Australia who had never snowboarded before.  By the end of the day, most of them were turning on the super carpet.  Not confidently, but they were turning.  Great day to just be outside enjoying the outdoors.
