All it took was one little coastal low to reset the zone back to normal. Its wild how much of an effect even a small storm can have. Our biggest concern now is the volcano erupting out in the Alaska Range. We have avoided having had too much of an effect from this natural beast but ash is definitely a concern. The Heli intakes don't care very much for black dust, and nor do any aircraft for that matter. Fortunately there havn't been too many delays effecting us with the periodic Anchorage airport closures.
The Skiing is getting better and better each week. The glaciers are starting to get bridged in a bit better and the steeps are starting to hold snow, though with a firm surface underneath new snowfalls have been sluffing off quite easily. Overall, stability has been pretty good in this part of the range and the skiing is good when the weather beaks enough to allow us passage.
