Sunshine has graced us on this weekend of winter celebration. Warm weather and lack of snow kept most riders on the trails. Off-trail conditions attributed to several injuries on what is known as "bullet proof" snow.

Record Snowfall reported at Alyeska Resort Over 283" of the most sought after commodity in Girdwood fell during December 2006. The previous record was from January 2001 at 274".

Just before Christmas we recieved over 40" in 3 days. On top of a previous weeks accumulation. That makes for a lot of shoveling!

Alyeska Resort...was sold to John Byrne III of Utah, and Cirque Property L.C. Dec. 1, 2006. Marking a new spark of positive energy to Girdwood's morale. Celebrated with a fireworks show from the North Face.

As a Girdwoodian, I am optimistic that we will see some much anticipated improvements over the next few years. Here are other links to newspaper stories regarding the purchase:
