Here is the quick story I&#8217;ve already told pretty much everyone:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The trip was excellent. It snowed maybe 10 inches the first day we were there, with some more the previous night. This, however, didn&#8217;t cause us any trouble with our flights. So the first day was cold, windy, and snow. But we were determined to ski anyways, and it wasn&#8217;t so bad. All the snow did make for excellent fresh power for the next two days, which were both clear and cold. On the fourth day it warmed up a bit to above 40, at least at the bottom of the mountain. Also, there may well have been places where we could find untracked powder on the fourth day, but I was far to tired to venture beyond the groomed stuff.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img src=\"http:\/\/72.233.35.22\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/04\/img_1634.jpg\" alt=\"Paul\" title=\"Paul\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-985\" width=\"200\" \/>Some extra tidbits and details:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>We went to Snowbasin and Powder Mountain as per usual.<\/li>\n<li>My bed was a nest constructed of two identical couches.<\/li>\n<li>There was satellite Internet that stopped working about 12 hours into the trip due to 20 second power outage.

But I think the food was better, mmmm sweet-potato-fries.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Finally, time to write about the ski trip.
