Comments Comments1-2 inches of fresh powder made for nice skiing this morning.

Green Peak - first time here when this was open. Chair feels very slow after riding the HSQ, but probably a nice option on a busy day.
Governor's Run was wall to wall with only a couple of thin spots. Really nice cruising. Short loop of Ruffled Feathers open as well. Chandler's Way was wall to wall to the top of South Street; nice novice run. Lower Chandler's closed. Bourbon Street was good until the very end (steep with with dirt/ice). Baseway was also a little thin in the narrow chute.

High Country - Hassle, Ruthie's, and Tree Line open. Scramble was not open (lift line for future T-Bar). Some drifting, very little traffic.

Sunnyside - Oblivion had some golfballs. Ciao was okay if on skier's right, but thin on the left. Gema closed. True Grit had a fresh groom down the middle with bumps left on either side. Lower Bobby's had snow cover on the right side, which was bumped up (did not venture down this). Valley Run a bit scratchy in places, as was lower Rock Island.

Main Mountain - Upper Bobby's good to the crossover, then natural only onto Psyched (did not venture down this part). Upper White Caps was good. Some thin spots on Lower White Caps. Utter Abandon was good, as was World Cup. Lower Sel's Choice was closed. Upper Old Tecumseh was good, but Lower Old Tecumseh was scratchy. Tangent/Upper Periphery thin/not groomed with some bumps. Tippicanoe and Tyler too were wall to wall and good.

Skied on a free midweek pass from signing up for and using the RFID. Light crowds and reasonable temperatures.
