Fresh snow the night before and morning of meant a bluebird day, and being spring break, it was quite busy. The top still has nearly 20 feet of snow on it (!), and the backside had an hour wait for a grilled cheese. But being able to drop straight off back instead of having to traverse in April was pretty awesome, and the snow was generally in great shape.

Lan Lan had some of her mom friends over for dinner, so the house was a ruckus for several hours. But Chris got to make 10 pounds (!) of his famous adobo, so we were definitely well-fed. Nom nom nom.
