the Incremental Improvements in Shred Depth in Top Surface Layers and the
Reduction of Icy or Solid feeling in the Base that comes with every Overnight
Grooming Cycle following a Warm-To-Cold Normal, Seasonal, Temp Swing.
Today may see a “Dynamic” i.e., changing “Open Trail” Status Up or Down,
and/or there may be specific Ski Patrol Hand Posted Signage or Advisories
regarding either Difficulty Ratings and/or Natural Hazards.

Mountain Guest Questions Today.
Yesterday’s Conditions were very demanding Technical Skiing due to the solidity
of the Base. Without Sharp Edges you would have felt almost everything was
slick or Icy.
We expect Today to be considerably better in that regard, but there will still be
a very solid base below what-ever Soft, Loose, Top Layers Mountain Crews can
Groom into the Trails, so cautious exploration and reserved Speed control on
all descents is required to identify zones where Speed can safely be used.
This is applicable to all Skill Levels.
What We Had Yesterday That May Still Be Present To Undetermined Degree:

surface, you can see there is a very solid base with a loose shallow coverage.
The challenge is “Edge Set”. The normal process of using edges to generate
control inputs of turning, braking, and stopping becomes less effective when there
is less to grip with, so speed needs to be dialled back and edging needs to be gradual
in order to maintain control. All of that is far, far easier when you have the right tools
for the job.
Here Is What You Need To Optimize Your Day On The Slopes:

Tuned Gear Is Essential For Safety.
Tuned Gear Is Essential For Enjoyment.
When You Have “Control”, you have “Safety”...
and with Safe Control, comes “Enjoyment”.
If It’s Been More Than 10 Days Of Mountain Use Since Your Last Tune-Up,
Go To The Ski Shop in the Chalet Des Voyageurs, adjacent to the Cabriolet
Base, across the Square from the Clock Tower.
Their “Overnight” $35. +tx.etc., is a CRAZY Good Deal!...
and you will literally feel like someone gave you Brand New Skis!
Technically Speaking... Tuning your Skis at The Ski Shop may actually improve
the performance of your Skis beyond what they were Brand New.
Many “Mass Produced”, assembly line built, Consumer Grade Skis/Boards
come produced with bases and/or edges that are not quite true to Ideal
tolerances of “Squareness” or “Flatness”, so having them Tuned on the Ski Shop’s
Wintersteiger Discovery II CNC Style Automated Machine can render your
Skis or board to more accurate dimensions than they were originally made with.
Weather Notes:
Mother Nature Blew the Forecasters Away with -28C overnight, 6C cooler
than expected, so it’s a”Bundle Up” morning for sure.
At least it’s Sunny, and the winds are supposed to be light, so by the time
it reaches -14C or so after lunch, it will feel a lot warmer.
Dress Appropriately and you’ll be fine.
