Despite the 70 degree weather on xmas eve the skiing was pretty decent today. Yes the terrain is limited but the light crowds and sunny skies made for a very pleasurable morning of turns.
Three routes open in the URSA pod (black bear, polar bear and North American) and a route connecting to the bottom. Main trails have decent base but some of the base area and lower mountain are a bit thin. They were actually using a farm tractor to bucket snow to some of the thin areas down low.
Big piles of snow on Tamarack are waiting to be pushed out and groomed soon.
