Well, the big caveat is that I was skiing in the evening. Not off of fresh grooming.
We found some nice soft bumps and some blue trees that had soft snow once you got in a ways. Place was really filling up with the evening crowd when we were leaving. My first time at Brighton and I've been skiing Alta and Snowbird since the late 70's. I really like it!

Well, there is a reason why I focus on Alta, Snowbird, and Brighton. Each is great in their own individual way. We probably passed by each other and didn't know it.

Great, thanks! Do you know when things normally become Spring conditions and when the trails start to close up?
Park City doesn't close until mid-ish April, but they close upper lifts about a week early, which is turbo-lame., so you may lose access to the good stuff sometime in early April or so. It's all a guessing game.

Given the lack of snow I have no idea when "Spring conditions" will present this year.
