Sunday was pretty good. About 4-6 inches of fresh snow from the day before. Snowed off and on all day. Early season is definitely done - there were a surprising number of beginners and intermediates out. Belt parkway was very crowded especially earlier afternoon. The Flyer lift managed the traffic pretty well though - not quite ski on, but no more than a 3-4 minute wait.

Grooming was a little lacking. 7th Ave / Broadway (blue squares) were pretty bumped up in areas. Hellgate skied great and Jimmie Huega seemed to keep the fresh snow pretty well.

You know what, i forgot that 7th and Broadway are only accessible from blacks. Makes sense
