Yes. Mokka and I joined Jerry and Clay for some nice mid morning runs on Raven Ridge, then found soft bumps under the Eagle chair. They were our favourites.
Lots of kids on a ProD day by noon though.

Day 53 - Awesome POW day at Cypress. 10-15 cm of heavy snow on Benny's, Shoreline and Coyote 7. Horizon Bypass and Ski (trees) had the best powder (10-15 cm dry snow).

Jasey Jay and lower Panorama had thick fog so we moved to Humpty Dumpty for amazing rides. Super fun snowboarding with LeopardSkin, Marc and Rob F. Another good WTF'er turnout with Rob W, Clay, Doug, Jerry, Bill and Benito.

Day 54 - Snowboarding groomer conditions at Cypress with LeopardSkin. Jerry on skis. Softest on Sky Chair and Humpty Dumpty. Got bumpy and crowded by 10:30 so called it quits.
