Hunter is to be commended...deep base now on trails opened in late November, much icy goodness under manmade fluff.

Claire's looks ready for tomorrow with another night of snowmaking.

Snow of the day was on upper K to Eastside Drive. Right side of Upper K on the rock wall was particularly nice.

Good bump line hard left on Minya. Wayout good. Claire's very poachable from work road 6 but ski patrol was on folks a bit for doing so. It was good.

Thanks to Karl and Kingslug for the company. Ira was looking svelte after losing 20 lbs. Bastard gets to ski tomorrow and open Claire's. I hate you Ira.

Well, envious anyway.

Hunter is rocking.

Yep, a bit of a scratchfest on anything with pitch, though "Wayout" was in decent shape. I found nice scraps on the sides of several trails and lapped them most of the day.

Pretty impressive watching the snowmaking firepower on Claire's.

Upper K, Lower Clairs and Heuga all real nice. Nice to meet another AZ at Hunter.

Sounds like they're still laying down the goods. Should be pretty sweet for when I get out there in a couple of weeks!
