pretty difficult day out there. snowdon, rams & snowshed opened on time. after that we were playing the 'find the open lift' game. conditions easily made the bottom five of the season. mtn did what it could with a late groom, attempting to cover huge ice floes, bare spots and open water. best snow was probably on rime with guns running t-t-b taking us back to early november rather than late feb. predominant condition was deep sugar/sand & chunky monkey covering ice. we lucked out & caught the opening of bear shortly after 11 and those runs skied well for a while. started snowing as i waved the white flag. every little bit helps but the mtn needs to go back to dec/jan full-on snowmaking and that's probably not gonna happen ...
