Absolutely amazing coverage for this time of year. Trails are covered edge to edge and there's a few inches in the woods. Very few barespots - just a couple of those areas that get washed out from water running underneath. Better coverage than anytime before Valentine's Day. Go figure.

First run at 9:00am bumps were a little crusty but groomers were in great shape. Great corn as the morning progressed. Bumps changed to hero status at around 10:30. No lift lines but the upper lot was actually around 3/4 full with some additional cars parked at the fixed quad lift. Only complaint was that the fixed quad seemed like it was running at super slow speed so I only got a couple of runs on that side. Too bad as Dot Nebel was in great shape.

Go there - you won't be dissapointed unless the snow turns to mush. I heard rumors they were shooting for another week but the week ahead looks really warm.

Why is Hunter closed?!?!? (yeah, yeah, not much money to make, etc.)

Hunter is installing new lifts, they had to close early. (I wish.....)

I was kidding....I wish they would though. (You know...that expansion that's been going to happen sometime in the future for years?)
