My first day at Winter Park. Beautiful Bluebird day with @wchesser - http://goo.gl/Euo4 Decent, but a little too many bumps for me. Though I could definitely see how it's a great ride on a powder day.

brilliant sunny last day of the regular season for me. I'm off to the UK for the remainder of April, so won't see closing days in Summit county or Vail. If A-Basin is still open when I get back, I'll be layering on the sunscreen for a few more post-season turns.
