Vertical: 13,500 ft
Skied with Clay today. Emily was supposed to come but got stuck going to work. After a minor disaster with a car lockout, I drove up to Breck. I thought conditions would be good after the storm but for some reason everything was just set up and crusty. I still found some good stuff in the trees. It got really warm though, hit 47 at one point, which really messed with the snow. After a shortish day, Clay announced he was cooked around 2:00. I figured with the less-than-ideal conditions I should just call it a day too and decided to head back. Passed A-Basin on the way and realized it was much colder there than at Breck. I had nothing better to do so I figured "why not" and ducked into the parking lot. Quickly booted up and grabbed 4 runs at A-Basin before they closed. Much better conditions there.
