Loved: Lots of fresh pow this early in the season.
Hated: Saturday (24th) only got two runs in before they closed!
Closed: The Wall was closed but the Cornice and Reut were open.
Liftline-Waits: Very long starting out on Sunday but empty during the week.
Moguls: Nice and powdery. Nothing really that nasty yet.

Details:

Unbelievable conditions considering the resort was just able to open on the
24th. The resort closed at noon on Saturday (24th) due to heavy wind and snow
but Sunday was awesome even after a delayed opening. On Monday the Cornice was
open and the conditions remained excellent...better than any time last year
except February really.

I tried snowboarding for the first time on Tuesday which was nice since I had
the slopes to myself mostly. Wednesday was dry but there was more snow on
Thursday so it was another day of fresh pow.
