No new snow last night and the temps remained VERY mild. This morning after breakfast, we decided to go skiing. After making 1 run, we decided it wasn't SAFE to continue skiing. Besides the snow being VERY soft, the FLAT light, which is a grey on grey type of light, caused us to not see where we were going. If the sun was out it would have been OK. The clouds were hanging low over the ski area. We then went to the Keystone Nordic center and snow shooed. Not sure how long we will be able to snow shoe, the snow is melting fast on the trails. As we went along the trail, we saw a tree stump that had all types of dog tags on it. It was weird. We also saw black squirrels in the trees eating pine cones. I guess all of the animals are coming out. The non-ski mountains that are facing the sun are really losing their snow. The resorts have to keep up moving the snow around and doing a good grooming job.
