Family Day, Feb 18, 2013

Had a fantastic Family Day at Blue. Managed to get Ryan , Robin , Noah and his friend Blake to the Hill.

They opened things up at 07:30 . We tried to be there for the first run but were a bit late arriving at 08:00 am. The conditions were fantastic , clear sky, -13C and the amazingly perfect groomed trails. For the first 2 hours there were almost no lift lines up down and a ton a fun. Wait times really started to ramp up around 10:00 am. At 10:30 we went in for lunch and were back out on the hill before 11:00 am. Robin headed off to join some friends, Blake and Noah headed to the Badlands and Ryan and I started on the L Hill .... the triple lift was running that day and the lines were pretty reasonable. Plan was to all meet up at the Village at 2pm. Ryan and I hit the Patio at Rusty's and enjoyed a pitcher of Canadian. Robin, Blake and Noah meet us at we headed to Waterfall and the South end of the resort spending the last couple of hours of the day. I was parked in the small lot next to the Beaver Tail Shack and when we left at 4:30 we ended the day with some hot fresh fried doe.
