Introduction note: This ski season got off to a slow start with very little snow before February. This made our first season of ski patrolling seem a bit short. Somehow we still managed to have some great ski outings.

Jackie visits for FOB - Park City III (February 25 - March 1): The Friends of Brad (FOBs) came out to Park City for the third straight year to celebrate the memory of our dear friend. I (Joe) didn't get many pictures this year, but Jackie Bassham and I spent some good days together.

Montana Ski Tour with Lorna & Marco (March 6-13): Christine and I got together with Lorna & Marco for a week-long loop of skiing in Montana and Idaho. We skied one day at Red Lodge Ski Area, one day at Bridger Bowl, two days at Big Sky, and two days at Grand Targhee. We all piled into our Toyota RAV 4 with skis, boots, and clothing for the week. It was a great trip.

Easter Skiing in Park City with the Podbers & Mortons (April 3-5): Our friends from Atlanta came out to Park City for a great weekend of skiing. It had been snowing nearly a foot each day that week, and continued snowing a foot each night through the weekend. We skied two great days at Park City and then ended the ski season with the best skiing day of the year at The Canyons. It snowed all night Sunday and through the day Monday making it an epic day. I didn't even pause to take many pictures.
