Firsthand Report

March 8th, 2 days of snow preceeding. Warm temps today. Plenty of coverage, but the snow in the trees was like fly paper. Groomers were fast and fun. Just don't fly into the trees at 30mph from the groomers or you'll be sorry. Summit lift was finally open and coverage up there was adequate
