North is open for the season!
GMX, Northridge and Summit are on hold due to icing!
HG was also delayed for icing, with the weather yesterday rain to freezing you would think someone in management team would tell the lift mechanics to come In early as there is a high likelihood of icing.
Just a little bit of planing not reacting, SB continues with the PPPPPP model.

Hah...I literally had the same thought when I noticed them grooming that last night! I guess they wanted something groomed on the VH side. Honestly SF wasn't too terrible this morning, but other trails were better. I'm surprised how much natural they reopened. Also surprised how much less we lost in terms of base compared to what I expected.
Paradise was surprisingly decent. Even the woods were decent in spots. Would go from total sketch to powder pockets to sketch. Daughter made me do it. SF was a skating rink in the afternoon, my daughter tried out her new FIS Atomic SL skis and they just ate it up. I was like an elephant on roller blades on the Blaze 94’s.

Maybe they figure the only people hard core enough to complain about missing out on freshly glazed ski trails are on Alpinezone and Reddit, so they don't want to annoy there employees over this. And it isn't even the entire mountain. Is it even causing a line?

This is a silly comment. Were you here? Conditions were actually much better than anticipated.

Sorry but what is the 'PPPPPP' model?
