Seven Springs Trip Summary

Unfortunately, our trip leader, Lisa Ferenc, was not feeling well and she bowed out of the trip. Tom Vannuyen and Mike Kaltenstein agreed to step in to help run the trip. The forecast at Seven Springs was supposed to be high 28 for Friday 1/18/13 when I looked at weather.com on Thursday night. When we got off the bus at Seven Springs, the weather was in the brisk 16 degree F. It finally crept up to about 25 degrees in the afternoon. We had a full bus of 52 skiers and boarders. We enjoyed the breakfast snacks of blueberry muffins, sticky buns, bananas and apples, juice & water. Our bus driver got us there in at 9:30 am, which was awesome. Yeah, more time on the slopes. :)

We had a minor snag of someone grabbing the wrong boot bag. We were able to find the correct owners and do a swap. Some runs were closed and some you had to steer around the snow making machines. The morning was beautiful. The sun came out for most of the day. The trees looked like they had some water freezing on them. They look like glass with a light layer of drifting snow on them. The morning was excellent snow on the North Face. Overall, I thought it was a wonderful day of skiing. We had several people asking to rent equipments on the bus and we were able to reserve that for them saving them some $$. We had some new members and they all agreed it was a lot of fun and they will definitely come for another trip.

Everyone was on their own for dinner with the bus departing shortly after 7:00 pm to head home. Most were relaxed and tired as they talked about what a great day they had!!
