After several days of glorious sunshine, the snowy change has arrived as promised, though this time, we are in Aspen Colorado.

It was the tale of two weather patterns as the stable fine and sunny weather has given to what you would probably more so expect in Colorado during the winter months. The sun is well and truly gone and temperatures have dipped back below freezing.

Several inches of snow have already fallen and we are still expecting a little more before the season is done and dusted.

Aspen is a great family destination as well

Unfortunately, the snow is not enough to save most parts of Colorado resorts as the ground is already well and truly bare in places, though the fresh makes a nice layer on top of the more consistent snow areas.

It’s just one more reminder that winter is not quite done yet.

Thanks to Papa T for today’s report and a big thanks to the Andrade family for their guest appearance. Charles is actually a local artist and muralist and you can find him online at lazure.com As the snow continues to fall, we hope you are making the most of the end of the season wherever you are, though for now it is farewell from a snowy Aspen Colorado.

Three feet of fresh powder overnight at Breckenridge with today’s Gaper Day snow report? Must be April 1st.

Gaper Day is a superb tradition at many resorts and Breckenridge celebrates it on April 1st each year. It’s a celebration of the season and a chance to poke just a little fun at the “Gapers” that frequent the mountain during the season.

Today’s weather truly turned it on for the start of April as one of the warmest days of the season showed up to join in the celebration.

A change is expected tonight with maybe a few inches of snow, though for now, we’re more than happy with perfect sunshine and warm temperatures.

In today’s report, Papa T takes a look at gaper day and talks to some of the local to find out what on earth is going on. Just seeing some of the outfits on the hill was worth the lift ticket alone.

Also in today’s report, Lars takes another look on some additional tactics to teach you how to ski moguls. He heads back to the bumps with a few more tips that will hopefully help even more in mastering some of the most challenging terrain on any mountain. If you missed it, you can check his first lesson on how to ski moguls here.

This is the last report for the season from Lars and Papa T and we’d like to thank them for some entertaining and informative reports whilst they have been checking out the best the Rockies have to offer. For now, it’s farewell from Breckenridge, Colorado and gaper day 2012.
