Another cold and sunny morning. Two Blue Bird Mornings in a row. It was about 4 degrees at 7am, but again because of the sun, it warmed to the mid teens by 10am. We went to Keystone to ski and we found the snow in great shape and very few people to screw it up. The kid’s snow board park was empty and maybe some day I will try it. The runs at Keystone are much longer and steeper and because of that, we only made it to 1pm. We came home for lunch and a quick map before getting ready to go out for HH. We tried a new restaurant in Frisco called Frisco Prime. The deals on the drinks were OK, but the meals weren’t as good as some of the other restaurants. We went to the Dam Brewery for one last cocktail and check out the deals for Super Bowl Sunday. It is HH from 3pm to 6pm. I think we will go there to watch the game. No new snow in the forecast and tomorrow may be another Blue Bird Morning.

Tuesday Feb 26, 2019 (FINAL REPORT)

This will be my last update for my blog. We will be leaving Colorado and traveling to Cottonwood Arizona to visit relatives. It was a wonderful time in Colorado . Today was the mildest day so far. It was 28 degrees at 7am and went up to 41 by 3pm. The sun was in its full glory and you had to put on plenty of sun screen. The only problem with this weather is the morning hours where there is a refreeze of the slush from the day before . This not only includes the parking lots but the snow that hasn’t been groomed. Chunks of ice are all over the place until the melting process begins. The next few days will continue the mild weather. Thank you for reading my blog.

We had a little of each today. It was a weird weather day. This morning started under sunny skies and temps around 28 degrees. However, the weather report was still calling a BIG storm. So we went to Keystone to catch the first chair. The snow was good and the trails all groomed. We skied our usual 2 hours and with the Friday crowds starting to show up we went home. But by 2pm, heavy snow started and we had a very quick 3-4 inches. The snow turned the roadways into parking lots and I70 was closed again because of multiple spin outs. As quickly the snow started falling, by 5pm it was only very light snow. So I don’t know if that was the BIG storm that was coming. The roadways were still a mess so we stayed in for the night. Tomorrow morning we will see the storm totals. Whatever the totals it will be great skiing for the vacationers.
