I got to ski at this resort which happens to be a glacier which means it moves a couple inches a year. I am pretty sure you can ski on this mountain 12 months out of the year. You have to be really careful though because if you go off the trail in the powder in what could look like a blue or grey spot, it is a crevis (spelling?). Which means it the part of the glacier that has cracked from the movement and extra soft snow has fallen in to fill it. The scary part is that no one really can tell for sure how deep the crevis is. So if you hit this blue or grey spot you sink like quick sand, and rescue is nearly impossible. Well I am writing this so I am ok haha.

You can see the path of the glacier as well as the little reservoirs of lakes it has left along its path.
