Fortuitous Weather Makes For the Perfect Bumps and BBQ Weekend at Hunter Mountain
With temps nearing 50, not a cloud in the sky and a mass of spectators enjoying a highly entertaining setup, it was all that you would expect out of an après ski party and the perfect ending to one of the best ski weekends of the season.
"Sometimes it Snows in April"
Already up in the Catskill region for Easter, we had planned to ski on that Monday anyway. One last hurrah on the hill, still holding on to the waning days of winter as the warm weather lay on the horizon. I anticipated spring conditions at best. You know, 56 and sunny, corn snow early and by mid-day sticky and slushy. Never did I expect to look out the window on Monday in the early morning din of the sun and see the ground covered in white and snow coming down like it was mid-winter.

This gave them 7300 acres of ski-able terrain and something you probably should trying skiing all in one day. However, when you're on a tour of the resort, you can damn sure try. Although we fell short by quite a bit we did manage to ski from The Canyons Village side...
Spring Ski and Après Ski: A Trip of Overindulgence
Part 1: Snowbasin Resort When Ski Utah invites you on a trip with the title, The Après Ski Overindulge Trip, you just don't pass that one up. Especially when the name of your company is All About Après and you are a self described drinker with a skiing problem. This trip seemed tailor made to my skill set so it was an easy decision to jump all over it when the opportunity came my way. As the trip began, it became abundantly clear that overindulgence might have been the understatement of the ski season. Especially since Utah has so much more...
