[QUOTE=Hawk;225658]So I skied 3 days this weekend and this is my opinion. The quality of the snow was fine for opening weekend. Actually best I have seen so the new guns seem to be an improvement. There were no huge icy whales like past years and coverage was good with no huge areas of icy mess. The temps warmed up on Friday so it was spring skiing. Great day on Friday best so far. ;
Friday was nice because it was warm but Saturday and Sunday were icy, especially Downspout. I have to refresh my snow report translator- "sharpen your edges" means bring hockey skates. I understand it froze, but can the groomers go out early in the morning to groom, not at 4pm so it's frozen corduroy? At least running the towers on Downspout to refresh would have been nice. The snowmaking down low on Sunday was for show, the amount of running water coming out of the piles was comical, while there were guns on Ripcord that could have been turned on. Slow and steady it is. Hopefully no more downloading, that is the worst.
