Perry,

Lynn fell in love with the relatively easy trees leading down to lift 8 at Loveland back in February.? If she'd had to choose between those trees and us, there would have been no contest? :o so Jim and I played it safe and skied trees too.? If you're looking for something gentle after a few days of hard skiing or to regain your ski legs at the beginning of a trip, then chair 6 is your area ... flatter, but still fun.? The runs to skiers right have a few trees and can be fun in light powder.? And if you "accidentally" keep skiing down past the 6 lift, you can hop on the 4 and take the traverse over to 8 and Lynn's excellent trees.? It's a simple enough navigational error:? anyone could? make it? ;)

If the sky is blue and the winds are light, consider riding to the top of chair 9 for a spectacular view and take Rookie Road back down.?

And about that fresh snow ... you can keep it? >:D? "Morning snow showers" morphed into the midday blizzard in Vermont today, so I've had my fill? ;D

Actually, that's some dump forecast for tomorrow with the possibility of daily refreshes throughout the week.? Okay, now I am jealous.? Enjoy the freshies and let us know how the magnums compare with your RX-8's and the supershapes you demoed.

PS? On a typical day, many of the blues at Loveland are not groomed.? If there's a skier in your party who greatly prefers groomers, take note of the grooming report posted next to the ticket window.? Or ask a local about the trails you're interested in.
