Winter in the Northwest has so far been disappointing.

With less than half the normal snowpack (albeit before the storm that sent me up), skiers and snowboarders have been praying that mother nature opens up and gives us the parade of snowstorms we expected to get this winter.

She gave us a decent one on Monday, delivering several inches of new snow at Mission Ridge. I’m of course hoping for more, but for now, it was enough to get me out of the office for a couple of hours to get some turns in.

Hope you enjoy it!
