indiggio Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 Back from a morning session, where snow conditions were downright spectacular. I believe they blew snow on every trail (not sure about Burma or those though...) and the grooming was excellent. Razors was perfect cord along with Challenge. Nightmare & Dreamweaver were on par as well. Paradise was nice and soft and Sidewinder was groomed and fast. Main Street was wonderful, with reseeded Barney's. Unfortunately they were scraped off later down to boiler. About 9:00am, riding 6-pack just to the crest of Challenge and eerrrrkkkk! It came to a FAST stop, luckily fellow riders hadn't put the bar up yet!! We sat for about 15-20 mins., hearing horn going off a few times, but no movement. A few more minutes later, finally some movement, but at a snail's pace. After they got everyone off, they shut it down, which cut the day short, since lines at the quad and doubles were out of control, as the crowds started showing up big time around 10. Hopefully they'll get some nice new snow out of this predicted storm, but otherwise snow conditions couldn't have been much better today.

RidgeRacer Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 On my way to blue now. Hopefully the snow is still nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RidgeRacer Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Holy shit. Absolutely awesome conditions here. I skied blue MLK night 2 years ago and it was icy hell. Tonight is amazing. Soft man made pretty much everywhere. The bumps on nightmare are skiing great. Not much in the way of crowds. Great night of skiing for sure 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtomicSkier Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 The place was pretty empty by the time I got on the snow around 6:20pm. Even the headwall on Razors was pretty damn smooth. Lazy mile was awesome for warning up on the slalom skis and the racing conditions were pretty much ideal. Will be nice for 3-6" of fresh on top of the already decent conditions.
