Regarding the 7:30am "First Trackers", they are on a guided tour. They all go down the same trail. There are 111 trails on the mountain to enjoy. They are (at least every time I've seen them) going down trails. On a powder day, are you all riding the trails or the woods? It's not like they're getting free-reign of the whole mountain a full 30 minutes before lifts open. I don't see the "first trackers" going into Gangsta's or sneaking into Paradise. But again, everyone's entitled to their opinion. Just don't assume that 30 people are going up Bravo, being turned loose on any trail, then meeting at the bottom to do it again.
Don't forget about the cabin cat first tracks.... (though I haven't seen it mentioned alot this season, perhaps with lack of early morning pow). Anyone can sign up for that when it is offered. Yeah, it costs some $, but worth it for an early untouched run(s).
And finally, I agree with s_r_o's comments... there are some great conditions out there and with these temps, the snow's going nowhere fast. Get out there and enjoy it!!!!!!
