Trip Report:
I got to the Season pass office at about 8:30. No line to get my pass activated as an express card. In and out after the guy figured how to print my daughter's pass. Pulled into the upper lot by the gate at about 9. Got to the gondi around 9:45. Started loading about then. Took a few runs down Rime and Upper East Fall. Proceeded to lap Rime with bumps developing. Snow was soft and there was plenty of coverage on Rime. Rails were set up on the beginning of Upper East Fall. The bottom section had some small death cookies at the beginning plenty of coverage though. Upper Double Dipper was very thin though. Grass was sticking through. Never took a break and stayed up top. The longest line for the singles was about 5-7 minutes. At about 12, every one disappeared. Lift was ski on from then on. I decided to take a run to the bottom at about 1PM. I decided to get off the Monster 88's and switch to the Supershapes for a few runs. Went back up a couple of more laps of Rime, Quads were shot. Hammys are tight this morning. Decided to just to haul arse down GN to the car. The run to to the bottom was in great shape. Called it a day at about 2PM. The snow was a little firm but not as bad as I thought it was going to be. Great first day. 15K vertical feet. Few pics from my phone. Sorry.
The Meatheads were there also. Geoff and The Hammer and others.
