Nothing compares with a perfect ski day—cold and sunny with blue skies and the slopes covered with a blanket of early morning fresh powder.
Skiers call these perfect conditions a “bluebird day.” We had almost canceled our multigenerational ski trip to Massanutten Resort in Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains because the forecast predicted and delivered the total opposite—constant rain and daytime temperatures in the 50s. But not going would have been a mistake. We would have missed some wonderful, if wet, family fun.
