Powder skiing is great, but the next best thing is sunshine on corduroy. This weekend had it all: blue skies, sunshine, and a dusting of new snow over perfectly groomed slopes. Also, today was the first day I noticed sunshine on Smokey. During the beginning of the season the sun sits so low in the sky that the front hills are always in shadow. With the days getting longer and the northern hemisphere beginning to tip back toward the sun, we now have sunshine on the front!
