Woke up to yet more new snow (roughly between 4" and 8"). Got on the hill shortly after 9 and hit up a run off of Lenawee lift with Neal from Canada. They popped "East Wall" so we traversed over there and caught up to Doug, Phil, and Kevin. We got fresh tracks (Doug shot video to prove it) and then went back for seconds. Took one more lap off the Lenawee lift, but this time hitting a nice tree slot for some more video (courtesy of Kevin). The lift line was starting to swell due to "East Wall" being open, so we headed down to the base and went over to the Palli lift and banged out a few laps on the "secret" trees before taking a lunch break. Then it was more skiing off of Palli (moguls were in fine form). At one point the group had swelled to include not only myself, but Phil, Trish, Adam, Kevin, Christy, Jonathan, Susan, Gary, Mary, Tball, Chris Geib, and some guy named Martine. Naturally, everybody got grouped up at one point, so I was holding back in the rear as "safety patrol". I hit a sweet line with everybody watching and heard a collective "OOOh!" Apparently I skied the sh!t outta the line (sure didn't feel like it) to the point that Kevin stated "That was some magazine shit right there buddy!" Skied by Peacemkers the entire day. Nice wrap to a pretty solid trip.
