A great day at Timberline
this past Saturday. Sunny, almost no wind, and no long lift
lines. The parking lot was full as usual, but that didn't
translate into long lift lines. No lift line at all on Molly's
express chair. Maybe just a couple of people on the Pucci express
lift. A few people at the bottom of the Magic Mile.
I expected the Stormin' Norman lift to be the most crowded because
it serves the terrain park, but the lift line there was relatively
short. Jeff Flood Express had relatively short lift lines too
until about 11 am, when the line suddenly grew longer for no
visible reason, except maybe because the lift stopped a couple of
times for a brief period, maybe because someone had fallen while
unloading at the top.
Free Timberline shuttles were running all day between Government
Camp and Timberline. We could have skied to Govy down the groomed
Alpine trail or down West Leg Road, and then taken the shuttle
back up. We didn't do it this time, but maybe we could try this
on some future occasion.
Overall, it was a good day to be out skiing. Too bad that only 3
of us were up there: Glenn, John, and Emilio.

We announced this ski day in the all-club forum several days
before. Next time you see someone announcing their ski plans,
come join them! Don't be shy.
