Here's hoping for April snow-showers... or just sun!

As the first week of April has drawn to a close, you wouldn't know it by looking at the ski slopes. Many major eastern resorts are close to fully open and the days keep getting better and better. Ice and hardpack has turned to soft corn snow and the warm temps and high sun provide goggles tans and smiles all around. Sure, most folks have hung up the skis for the year, but the best skiing and riding is upon us right now and I'm loving every minute of it. And while the snow is still deep and I love the warm sunny days, don't forget that last year, April was the season's snowiest month. I guess we'll see, but it seems like a win-win situation!
