	Comments	A nice day of skiing groomers; the corduroy in the morning was very nice although things were getting skied off by the afternoon. Coverage was generally pretty good on open trails. I started out with some laps on the Whiffletree lift before spending most of the day on the upper mountain lifts to avoid the long runouts, taking 19 runs in total. The bluebird skies allowed for excellent views of the surrounding peaks, and while it was cold there wasn't too much wind. Snowmaking was in progress on Lower Competition Hill, Sidewinder (with some huge whales) and a few other areas around Bullwinkle's and the top of the Skyline lift. There was a race event being held on Upper Narrow Gauge. All lifts were open except Double Runner West and the T-Bar; most were either ski-on or had a few-chair wait. The SuperQuad had about a five-minute wait most of the day but was empty towards the end of the day. Overall I had a great day at Sugarloaf and I hope some additional terrain opens up with the new snow tomorrow!
