Yeah, the base is slowly melting away, and there were some bare spots in the trees, but the skiing was pretty dang good for April 12!

There was sunshine, it was warm (but not terribly warm), the pond skim happened and, just in general, there was a fun atmosphere around the mountain.

After a cold start to the week, and even a powder day on Tuesday, spring returned to Whiteface today.

It’s been a while since we’ve seen much in the way of snow, so this was an extra sweet treat.

It felt like a winter day at Whiteface this afternoon!

For the first time this season, I finally had to ski something I’ve avoided all winter.

Had it not been a little windy, I think I could’ve got away with wearing shorts.

After four long months, and probably against all odds, this ski is set to be reunited with its owner.

Visibility was terrible everywhere, except the very bottom. The fog was so dense at times that it felt like I was in a Silent Hill game.

Despite knowing that the woods would be fast and firm, I decided to head up there anyways, because April is nearly here, and tree days are now fleeting.
