Day 54 - Great sunny session riding with Clay, Alan, Brian C and Mokka ... kinda firm on Lions side. Crazy Raven was the best with sun exposure.

Day 55 - Beautiful sunny day but conditions only 7/10. Tracked out in 2 runs with lots of pre-adulescent obstacles.

No familiar faces... now I know why.

Gonna check out Locarno after I treat myself to a strong mega latte

Day 56 - Beautiful bluebird day with spring conditions. Scored 2 solo runs down lower Jasey Jay for wide euro carving all to myself ... then the rest shredding up softened snow down Crazy Raven.

Now runs are just starting to get tracked out so I'm calling it a day while I'm still ahead

Day 58 - Arrived late to mostly tracked out conditions but found some untracked areas perfect for carving.

Blue skies and sunshine at Cypress this morning. Pretty good grooming in a lot of areas but bumpy and rough in a few spots like the mid section of Horizon.

I'm looking for some advice, I'm not super familiar with Cypress. I'd like to go skiing with my daughter and give her some lessons/tips. Ideally we would get some somewhat softish or decently groomed runs because we're going to work on carving and edges. Is tomorrow (Saturday) a good candidate for this? Sunday?
Thanks
