Eaglecrest has some great skiing, and some great blue sky days recently.  It is cloudy today, but with that we have the hopes of another foot of snow.  It has been rather cool, so there is actually *gasp* powder!  We hear reports of thigh or even waist deep powder on some of the ridges hikable from Eaglecrest (as Terry pointed out, they must be short people!).  At any rate, Carrie is finding her skis (?), that is gaining confidence, and she made it up to the top of Eaglecrest on the Ptarmigan chair lift (see the map here) for the first time last Sunday (a blue sky day, and the wind didn’t kick up until the afternoon, and we were up there early).  WAHOO!
