Resort or Ski Area: Saddleback

Conditions: POOOOWDAH

Trip Report: Man Saddleback is a lot of fun on a powder day. They are BURIED. Temps in the upper 20's. Actually less wind on top of the mountain than at the base. Good sized crowd but not overwhelming. Rode the upper Quad all day and it was pretty much ski on that lift. Just pick a trial and enjoy some fresh. It was somewhat dense fresh, but very movable and a whole lotta of it.

What a day . We are going back for more tomorrow. The pics:

First 3 pics are the salsgang men getting some on Supervisor

Sal, killer pics and report. I was there Friday and they weren't running anything other than the T-Bar and lower 2 lifts. I bet everything off the quad was stellar!!! Glad you got out there. How were the crowds?
