I was there on 11/30...conditions were good. Hellgate was firm but edgeable with some nice snow near the fence.

Got bored quick though. Blew it off today, waiting until more terrain is open.

Actually, better than I expected. Excellent side to side coverage and deep. No rocks to be found at all. Even at 3:30 on Saturday I found good snow skier's right on Hellgate and Midstation down was nice all day. Belt was nice and had the famed snowmaking cloud top to bottom.

Just got bored with the limited terrain. Spoiled I guess.

Sorry - exactly as i'd expect... :)

A word on snowmaking plans this week? Hoping they get some east side trails open and F lift, maybe Wayout too?

They should be good on the mainline and Belt now.
