Fleeting skiing conditions

With the arrival of spring weather, snow is changing really fast, and with it, the need for adapting even faster. What used to be mid-winter conditions, with fluffy powder a week ago has now turned into fast, icy shady areas contrasting with sunny spot that want to stop you right on the spot. This is the time of the year when skiers must adapt, give up, or sometime get hurt!

This says a lot and requires more strategies in skiing certain areas of the mountain at some very specific times. In fact, it's a bit disheartening at first, and suggest the unavoidable question: Is skiing still worth it at this time in the season? The answer is a resounding “yes” if we accept to change a bit, and better yet, remember how we managed it in years past. Even with this season's thin snow layer, I confidently believe that another month of decent skiing awaits us!
