Are both very dangerous and annoying. Of the 2 places I ski at night Jiminy Peak is very well lit, West Mt. has dark spots.
How about where you night ski?

Sundown has one notorious spot for bad lighting on Nor'easter, right after the start of the bumps by the sun deck.
Jiminey is were I night ski. Dont really have a problem with dark spots. I love ducking into the woods, or down a closed trail on a moon lit night.
We used to seek out the dark patches at Big Boulder and Camelback back in the day..
We got pretty "electric" a couple nights - skiing in the dark is pretty trippy... Camelback ski patrol just told us to leave one night... while shaking their heads in disgust...
yeah it was stupid..
The good thing about the early change to daylight saving in March is that when I go night skiing late in the season..it's light until 7:00PM so most of my runs are in daylight..and I get to see the sunset everyday from the slopes..That's mad steezy yo..
Does Electric mean frying?
I skied once on acid at Bear Valley in California when I was 14, I just remember the moguls looked enormous and my friend who didn't know I was tripping thought I sucked as a skier.
Sunsets are always nice to see, but for skiing it means flat light until it gets dark enough for the lights to take effect.
