Gunstock 2/27

[evile]

Arrived to a packed top parking lot at 9:30 thanks to unanticipated crummy road conditions. No matter, the lift lines were short or nil all day which had us asking "where are all the people who parked here?" again and again.

I guess they had a foot of fresh Friday and another 5" or so last night. Coverage was fantastic, plenty of freshies and a few knee-deep drifts to bust through. Recoil glades were roped off - why!? Everything else was open and in great shape, plenty of fresh lines in the trees all day. Upper Cannonball was an icy mess but the other steeps skied great. Overall a fantastic day on a nice, close, cheap hill and I wish I could hit it again tomorrow when they've groomed it all into soft cord.

they seem to forget/not bother dropping ropes or updating their report sometimes
I was there on a "100% open" day with plenty of snow and they never opened gunpowder glades..
I was also there the recent warm day and several runs were closed despite report of 100%, that was more understandable though.

Upper recoil glades was roped off for no apparent reason middle recoil glades where real nice, no as Nice as upper.
