Rolled up around 10ish. Sunbowl lot was full. They were parking on the access road. Not the road by the Nordic center, the road leading to that. Spun around and we were directed to the mountain ops building across from Lot 2. At this point, we are thinking: “ This is going to be a total s_show”. Walked to Lot 2, boarded a fully loaded bus.....and a few minutes later we were at one of a few empty picnic tables outside the main base. Huh?

It wasn’t as busy as the parking situation would have led us to believe. In fact, we rolled right into the fixed grip lift at the base. Line for Amex wasn’t too bad. Ursa had a wait, but we’ve seen much worse.

Skiing was awesome. Packed powder, powder bumps, good woods.

Speaking of, Kidderbrook Ravine was awesome. Time of snow, nice bumps, good drops.

95% or the time, it works perfectly on a Sunday. Still parking in the Sunbowl lot, boot up, hit the fixed grip, let people go in for lunch between 11 and 1 and we're off to the races.

Those glades should really deliver again after more snow today!
