Hey everyone!
AMAZING Easter morning! We got up at 530 AM and rode the lift to a sunrise Easter service on top of the hill. It was nice, but very cold. Afterward we had an warm breakfast in the lodge, only to reload the lift at 9AM. We got up the tram (like a gondola to the peak) and had some of the first tracks in about 18 inches of powder. We skied un-tracked powder all morning. At 1130 AM we went into a "yurt" for a bison bratwurst with sauerkraut and a delicious amber on tap. This was a little tent right on the side of the mountain....amazing. This morning's skiing was amazing...and I am so happy I got the skis I did, because it made it 3 times more enjoyable.

  1. just when I thought..Nick was there for adventure and medical education... in comes a YURT! you are there for bulking up your butt, loose it all by skiing all day like a mad man.. and make people in syracuse REALLY miss the shit out of you! well done, I am sure even the bison in your yurt does not appreciate that!
    although, doesnt sauerkrautt make everything so much better!
    Later bru!
