Comments | Arrived around 12:30 with rain coming down hard. Watched a few runs on the pond skimming at South Ridge. Took the Chondola up and skied over to Barker. Took Barker up and decided to take the adventure of top gun. Mostly massive moguls with some massive soft ice bulges and 2 single ski width areas. Headed over to white heat. White Heat was TOTD with deep coverage, nice mashed potatoes, and tons of fun! I wanted to see Bims Whim and see if it was truly open so I took salvation onto the lower section. It was true! A natural snow only trail was open!! It was mostly skiing on the tips of moguls along with some wet grass but still very fun. I took a run on Risky Business which was pretty fun and still deep coverage. Headed over to South Ridge for likely my last turns of the season. Did a final run on dream maker. It was eerie with fog, empty, and patrol taking down padding on snowguns. North Peak express is shut down with chair pads staked off to the side. The mountain still has a surprising amount of manmade and natural snow considering how little snow we got this year. White Heat has the most impressive depth with a ton of snow and should be open until they don't want to turn the lifts. Most open trails had a decent amount of snow. Weather: Downpour to start, ended raining for a bit, picked up big time and started downpouring although there were some snowflakes at the top of Spruce! Called it a day around 3:00 for what is likely my last day! Lifts: Spruce Peak Triple Chondola South Ridge Express Barker Mountain Express White Cap Quad White Heat Quad Trails(I skied) with good cover/conditions: Obsession Salvation White Heat Dreammaker Jungle Road Upper/Lower Sunday Punch Monday Morning Tourist Trap Risky Business Right Stuff Grand Rapids *Final day of the season is April 24th and is free! ** Lights out has snow pushed off of it and has active blasting! Aludra, Siris down from spruce are also closed(i'm guessing) due to construction as well | |
