Skied yesterday at Great Brook, after a "surprise" 6-8 inches when a "dusting" had been predicted. Went at 9:15 AM, by myself, with no expectations of conditions. They had stated it was a bit dicey in the woods, but I have actually seen worse, much worse. Was debating on whether to go down the steep, but short descent on one trail, as this is where I once had to take my skies off when there were rocks and roots poking through the snow! But, I like the climb, so I ditched the alternative route and up I went. The conditions were getting a bit slick and mushy, with snow piles on the sides of the descent (which curves). My edge caught and down I went. No one saw, but my back was already hurting, and I do feel the fall today.
I feel like I haven't had a really perfect ski day yet, except maybe the first one. Hoping for some snow for next Sunday, maybe, but I hope I get to ski somewhere more challenging before my trip to Stowe!
