I had a great time at Magic for the close of the season on 4/3. Sorry there's no pictures as I was in a teeshirt and shorts so had no pocket for the camera. The crew had truck over some snow at the bottom to allow access to the lift but once on the hil the skiing was stil pretty sweet. I had some nice runs down Broomstick, Black Line and Talisman early in the day. All were holding good amounts of snow on the hill but did require a couple of short walks on the run out but really not too bad at all.. After that I moved over to Twilight Zone and Goniifs which both had excellent coverage on Friday and was treated to some very nice snow. The bottom 50 yards was pretty interesting with some rapids underfoot with several caved in spots lol. Despite temps around 80 degrees, the show was actually not very slushy and skied very nicely. Did a run or 2 on trick as well which stil had graet coverage due to the snowmaking on that trail and regular grooming through the season. Jim and matt had tunes cranking down at the base all day and there was a crew of 50 or so skiers jsut having a blsat on the hill and on the deck. This was the best end of season day I have ever experienced and overall the end to a great season at Magic. I hiope to see some more first timers up there next year as well as some of the people that made trips this year.

Have they announced operating plans for next season?? I hope so....I know they haven't sold as many shares as they had hoped...
