How few ski during the week?

This time of year, weekdays are sparse, but this is ridiculous. See Burke's webcam. Very few tracks on Open Slope at 1230 on a new snow (likely a little heavy to be termed powder) day.

And I expect that all who have skied are season pass holders.

My work schedule is Wed-Fri and every other Sat. It seems that the vast majority of storms this season and last have been Wed-Fri.

Coming back east SS? Would love to get a couple of runs (and pick your brain about the west cause I always enjoy your posts) if you going to be around say K. Safe travels.

Yeah, coming back to that same summer gig to make $$$. I'll be at K at some point for sure although I tend to work on weekends, sometimes sundays are free...it all depends on the bookings for me. I'll meg you if I go up

I should add that I'm taking my sweet ass time coming across and skiing/desert riding on the way....just before easter is my goal

Mid-winter conditions at Loon today, all the way down to the cold and wind. Never thought I'd need to wear a balaclava on 21 March. They groomed the snot out of most trails the night before (OK for me) but there were some powder bumps to be had on Lower Flume (never made it over to the basin). Guessing it will be crazy crowded this weekend.
