Skyline still happening for a bit.

Postby windzup » Sun Apr 16, 2006 4:40 pm

South east winds opened up a frenzy of riding today at Skyline. The snow was solid packed and almost frozen stiff when we arrived, which turned out some fast but choppy rides. By noon the snow softened up to what felt like 6 inches of pow and the wind came up for 10-12 meter foil riding. It was the most air I've seen in Utah, not by me, but everyone else. At one point you couldn't look without seeing 4 or more riders hanging from the sky as the updrafts allowed for serious kite flying.

With the cold front coming it will likely get stiff and cold again, but the good news is there should be a nice coating of fresh snow on top, opening up the last weeks of April for one last taste of real winter.
