Bummer! At least you got one good powder day at Magic this year, better than most people can say.

How much did they get?
I think the official was 10-14" which sounds about right. Hard to tell because it was starting to compact from the get go. Quite a few sheltered spots that were deeper, some less sheltered areas less so. Except on the steepest stuff, it had a bottomless surfy feel due to extremely high density which got progressively worse. First run down Goniff was the best run I've ever had in there, I'll say that much for it. Depending on how cold it gets tonight, they might do well to groom out anything they can for tomorrow...

Car issues got in my way :( Magic remains on my list of places I've never visited. I did have fun making turns out the back door on my BC rig, though.
