The Forecast

There is a high pressure system moving in and there is no new snow in sight. Now, as an avid snowboarder who's lively hood and emotional stability comes from being on the snow you might think that I would be upset, depressed, or even scared about the current conditions. However, we are currently experiencing spring like conditions up on Mt. A, and I don't know about you but I love the spring.

Spring time riding is some of the most enjoyable riding. It is warm, slushy, and progressive riding. Plus you get an awesome goggle tan, and we all know that a good goggle tan is how we let the rest of the world know that we are hardcore mountain people. Therefore, with the idea of having to spring sessions in one season I am stoked. Also, at the end of a spring session is what gets me stoked for the next season, so it's kinda like having two seasons in one!

Remember that there are always positives in every situation. Your mountain might have lost a couple towers in a mud slide, your mountain might be experiencing high winds so it can't open, the road to get to your mountain might not be open, or even worse your mountain might have received to much new snow to ride because of avalanche danger. So, just remember that it is still early in the season, and relax. Work on your early season goggle tan. I know I will be!
