edpaffjr.comI’m happy to report that the conditions at Keystone have greatly improved since the beginning of the season. I’m still not sure that they are operating at 100% open, but it’s close. I headed up on Saturday morning with my friend Rob. We arrived plenty early, and were one of the first few out on the slopes. We immediately headed out to the Outback and eventually found ourselves hiking out to the North and South bowls. On our second run out there we hit some nice powder that was nearly knee-deep. By the time we made it out there again, others had found the stash as well, so it wasn’t as good. Rob is a good skier and we were quickly able to move through the runs and beat many of the crowds. Once the Outback became too crowded, we headed back toward the other mountains. We hiked out to The Windows area, which I had never been on before. We were able to find lots of snow, but the run we picked was too filled with trees to truly enjoy all the snow. After that exhausting run, we were ready to head out and beat the traffic back home to Denver, besides we had already got in about ten solid runs.

I’m so jealous!
All of the good snow was out in the broken ankle department. Wish you could make it out again this season.
