Report from April 24, 2025

We’ve had rough weather this month in Valdez, AK.

But we did sneak out for one powder run with Pulseline Adventure on April 23rd, and it was glorious just to get out.

Then, on a sunny evening on April 24th, we got back out and skied a warm-up and then two deliciously steep runs.

This was all a precursor to the monster, 14-run day we had on April 25th, my mom’s birthday.

Mom left us in 2023, and it was extraordinary to have the best day of the season fall on her birthday.

It didn’t hurt that one of my best friends from college was here with me that day as well.

Only our Cinderella Pumpkin time (1.5 hr before sunset) sent us home…

Thanks, Mom, and thanks, Dwanis!
