I'm surprised that loafer89 caught Wildcat on THREE bad days. I've only skied there once -- for 1/2 day -- and enjoyed it. Conditions were a little slick but edgeable, and despite trashing my skis on a too-thin Al's Folly, I had a great time. And that view of The Rockpile from the summit is awesome.
On the other hand, two visits to Vermin Valley were two too many.
