The Mountain is Closed

Today was the last ski day of the season. Patrollers enjoyed scenic breaks between hauling everything off the hill for summer storage.

The sign says "please clear unloading area". While Dave spent his day receiving, sorting and packing patrol items, I got to ski. Unfortunately, most of my pictures turned out grainy and missed showing the beautiful day with snow capped mountains in the background.I met up with Lupin's family -sans Lupin. Klara is all set for her ride up the lift. The family on the way down the run.Kerstin skiing with Klara.Anna skiing with dad.Spring snow is "glick" - basically slick, ski grabbing, glue. Always-ready-to-serve patrollers offered wax jobs to suffering skiers. The day ended with a celebratory dinner and brew. Thus ended another good year at Willamette Pass.
