Went with my son, took a few trips down the double, then over to Birdland, and once off the single before returning to the double. We spent most of our time on Panther, Gazelle, Gazelle Glades, and Partridge/Slalom, as well as Quacky, Snail, and the bird trails over at Birdland.

My only regret is that I kept waiting for the line for the single to ease up as the afternoon got on, but the conditions were so great that nobody was leaving early. My son didn't want to wait, and we found plenty of stuff to like off the double, so that's where we spent our time.

Conditions: They were okay, I guess, if you like powder, untracked snow, knee-deep woods skiing and the like. ;)

Weather: A little windy, but only on the lifts, as the trees offered good protection. Light to moderate snow all day, with temps in the mid-twenties.

These next three days might be the last winter-like temps we have this year and the snow might not be this good for a long time, so if you have any hope of escaping the flatlands in the next couple of days, for the love of Ullr, do yourself a favor and get up here.
