You might want to give them a call and see how their bumps are doing with the thaw as they have a few trails that are perfect pitch for learning bumps (Birches and Sweepstakes are the trails you would be interested in snow conditions beta if you call).
I sure do agree with your observation about the bumps on Hurricane. Next lesson I will have to convince the instructor not to take me on something so aggressive. I checked Ragged trail report and the trail count is way down, no blacks open. It appears the warm spell is getting to them.
