Saturday's rain scoured the air so that things were back to "healthy" by Sunday morning. Milton and A were able to do their whole five mile Dimple Dell loop, which took a while because we had to stop to chat with his old dog buddies (Betty, Loki, Molly and Aya) and a new dog buddy (Red). The sun kept trying to come out but never really broke through. Milton insisted on some driveway hang time when we got home but did not ultimately last that long: he prefers those days when he can bake himself in the sunshine. Back home, things got a little domestic meal-prepping InstantPot black beans, lentil soup and a vegan bolognese, as well as attempting a new focaccia recipe.
Because the sun never really broke through, H had another day at Alta with more of the same, although slightly colder and with slightly less snowfall. The light was still very flat and the conditions still very mixed. H reported definite grumbling in the locker room about the difficult visibility. Out of his 29 ski days so far, he thinks only seven have had blue sky/sunshine. And this was not one of those. He called it quits early and took the 12:39 bus down canyon.
