from the web cams, very few brave souls out. mtn can't catch a break. very light turnout yesterday and essentially zero today. appreciate shortski's dedication (or madness) on a day like today.

Trail count is down significantly. How much of a hit did they take yesterday? Heading up this weekend, hoping for some decent conditions.

There will be 4 nights grooming and some resurfacing by Saturday. Low temps. Conditions are fairly predictable: Flat, fast, some good gun skiing and some boilerplate, with heavy amounts of skied-off by 1pm.

Wouldn't pounds per cubic foot be a better unit of measure?
