Brought to you by 10 Barrel Brewing Co. Report from February 4, 2021 Today was foggy and fun.  Tough visibility up top made for creative line choices at the mid-to-lower portions of the resort today.  I went exploring in some trippy-looking trees off a run called Bear Trap.  The snow here was firm, fast, and quite ferocious honestly—you didn’t want to […]
