Day 4: More acreage.
For bodies that aren't yet used to it, this morning was cold! Tempertures were in the low teens at the opening bell, but quickly (and thankfully) warmed in the day's bright sunshine.
Our crew for today -- Bobby Danger, AmyZ, Skidog, Telejon, TheOtherAmy and yours truly -- were given more room to roam today, when at around 10:30 a.m. or so Alta Ski Patrol opened the Saddle Traverse all the way out to High Boy. Of course, that's precisely where we went, but only after the absolute first tracks of the lift-served season in Lone Pine.

(L to R) AmyZ, Telejon, Skidog and TheOtherAmy at the Wildcat Base. Bobby's skis are still laying there after he got sucked up into the mothership.
I split around 1:45 p.m., and stairs are painful tonight -- both up and down. Yet, tomorrow's another day.
