I spent the morning lapping the bumps at N'easter. They have been worked in, no death cookies but one or two of the bumps needs the shoulders worked in, almost looks like a ramp or a kicker. Speaking of which, the rows of bumps at the bottom of the trail is shaped like a kicker and you can get some air.....Spacing and formation is great. Troughs are still hardpack while the side and top of the bumps are softer. I spent most of the time in the middle line but skiers right is just as sweet. Had the trail all to myself for most of the morning but it got crowded around 10 am or so.

Have a blast mon... I sure did this morning :)

Me too. But I just wanted to go home after working. I wouldn't hold out hope for any softening.N'E needs rain and 50+ to soften. You might get some top coating tonight though.
