Day 4 - Fun snowboard session. Started on Eagle chair for some fun groomers. When wait times at the chair exceeded 2 minutes, I moved over to the Lions chair where there was zero wait time. Collins was in great condition for euro carves but bottom of run was brown with some rocks ... luckily no visible damage to my new board.

Day 5 - Mighty fine morning snowboarding with LeopardSkin. 2 hrs was just enough before the crowds started rolling in.
