Resort: Gunstock, Gilford NH

Conditions: Heavy wet packed snow, spring conditions

Report: First first of the year report here from Gunstock today. I was happy to make it up to the hill again today to enjoy a fine day on the snow. The word of the day though was wax! Conditions were great, although you needed a nice coat of wax to make the most of it! The mountain was pretty much empty (after last night's festivities from what they were saying). Skiing was really nice on spring like conditions and all four major route from the top were open. Snow making was done on middle recoil (closed) and the flats (closed also). Stonebar was getting some nice love too. All in all a great day out and of course photos to follow.

Summit was socked in early on with low visibility:

But that didn't last long!
