A sprinkling of snow was enough to bring out an avalanche of skiers for the 43rd annual Wisconsin Hoofers Ski and Snowboard Resale at the Memorial Union on Saturday and Sunday.
The event featured more than 6,800 pieces of discounted cross-country, downhill and snowboarding equipment and accessories from area vendors, as well as used gear from the general public.
For a second straight year, fresh powder enhanced the enthusiasm of area skiers, and sales were unusually high, topping $250,000.
