Day 3 - Good conditions for turns snowboarding with LeopardSkin. Occasional fog and flat lighting but overall pretty good for a weekend.

Day 4 - What a fantastic day without LeopardSkin!!!

Sun and blue sky attracted the weekend crowds but it was worth it. Sky chair opened for the season at 10 am sharp.

Scored 4 runs down Ripcord (under the chair lift). Deep and fluffy dry snow was perfect for riding the bumps ... never bottomed out even after 1 hour :D :D :D

Hmmm... I was thinking to go up tomorrow morning, especially with seeing sun on the webcams and it being socked in fog all day down here. Any reason to think the conditions will be better tomorrow??

Yes, there is a reason. Anything can be justified.

Day 6 - Much better. No death cookies at higher elevations. Fewer death cookies than yesterday at lower elevations.

Mainly blue skies and sunshine for the first two hours. About 10 CM of fresh snow on the upper parts of the hill which was very nice, especially since Humpty Dumpty and Horizon was closed which made for some nice turns for those who went under the ropes. Minimal lineups until about 11 AM.
