if it doesn't turn back to snow it probably means a very un-fun crusty layer on top of a foot of wet powder. groomed runs will probably ski well. ungroomed, not so much.

What do you think this means for tomorrow?

It means there will be a great base in the woods.. :)
Hunter will go out and groom it later rather than risk crust killing everyone..
Supposed to switch back to snow.. Should be nice tomorrow..

Did it turn back to snow?

I'd love to know about these non-existing tree lines you alluded to...I assume you were referring to off-map stuff....

Tree runs at Hunter? They're there, marked on the map. There's other stuff I've seen people hit but there probably isn't enough base to venture off the unmarked stuff.

"Non-existing tree lines" means - umm - they don't exist...
So there's your answer because you said it...

darn it - thought you were being sarcastic and had some stashes...

I always look at the gully under the zip lines and wonder if there ever enough snow to fill in those bands of rock I see there. and I did read an article a while back about something skiers left of annapurna. Always wonder about that. Takes you down to a fire road I think. Never been with enough snow though.

We totally have "non-existing" stashes... :)

I mean - if you see a break in the woods across the ravine - we've skied it... Why wouldn't we?
Have splitboard - will travel... :)
