It was a bluebird morning at the Alta Ski Area and Carol Bowling, 76, was looking for fresh powder.<\/p>\n

Her husband, Nick, 83, and his cousin Bob Phillips, 84, shouted over the whir of the chairlift, deciding where to go. \u201cSomething like this is skiable,\u201d Mr. Phillips said of the black diamond run below the lift.<\/p>\n

At the top, the trio tightened their boots and waited for a few more friends. It was a Wednesday in late February at the Utah resort, one of the oldest in the country. The morning was cold and crisp with a few inches of new snow.<\/p>\n

It was time to ski. The group headed down Devil\u2019s Elbow, a winding intermediate run. Mrs. Bowling found her powder, cutting left from the trail into the pine and spruce trees. The two men stayed together in the open, carving wide S-shaped turns. <\/p>\n

When they reached the bottom, it was almost 11 a.m. \u2014 time to meet up with Alta\u2019s seniors ski club, the Wild old Bunch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
